Secure image-based steganography for encrypted data transmission using cryptographic algorithms for secure military data transfer
In this digital age, we are faced with a serious challenge in ensuring the privacy and integrity of sensitive information. In this work, we propose a secure image based steganography technique for encrypted data transmission over Android platforms. Based on the open-source Image Steganography Library for Android, the proposed system hides the encrypted messages into digital images through LSB techniques modification. Before the embedding process, the input data is encrypted to increase its security level, hence it can be hidden against steganalysis and unauthorized access. Encoder and Decoders are both supported, so that you can hide and extract data for transmission/compression from images without the fear of them becoming altered. Equipped with a simple user interface for a professional communication between performers and customers, this service is fully scalable and can be used by any type of performer. The scheme can be adopted in secure messaging, authentication mechanisms, and covert communication mechanism specifically.
