Application of Steganography for Anonymity through the Internet
In this paper, a novel steganographic scheme based on chaotic iterations is
proposed. This research work takes place into the information hiding security
framework. The applications for anonymity and privacy through the Internet are
regarded too. To guarantee such an anonymity, it should be possible to set up a
secret communication channel into a web page, being both secure and robust. To
achieve this goal, we propose an information hiding scheme being stego-secure,
which is the highest level of security in a well defined and studied category
of attacks called "watermark-only attack". This category of attacks is the best
context to study steganography-based anonymity through the Internet. The
steganalysis of our steganographic process is also studied in order to show it
security in a real test framework.Comment: 14 page
Secure secret sharing in the cloud
In this paper, we show how a dealer with limited resources is possible to share the secrets to players via an untrusted cloud server without compromising the privacy of the secrets. This scheme permits a batch of two secret messages to be shared to two players in such a way that the secrets are reconstructable if and only if two of them collaborate. An individual share reveals absolutely no information about the secrets to the player. The secret messages are obfuscated by encryption and thus give no information to the cloud server. Furthermore, the scheme is compatible with the Paillier cryptosystem and other cryptosystems of the same type. In light of the recent developments in privacy-preserving watermarking technology, we further model the proposed scheme as a variant of reversible watermarking in the encrypted domain
