Greek Words:
STEGANOS – “Covered”
GRAPHIE – “Writing”
• Steganography is the art and science of writing hidden messages in such a way that no one apart from the intended recipient knows of the existence of the message.
•This can be achieve by concealing the existence of information within seemingly harmless carriers or cover.
•Carrier: text, image, video, audio, etc.
Types Of Steganography
Masking and Filtering: Is where information is hidden inside of a image using digital watermarks
that include information such as copyright, ownership, or licenses. The purpose is different from traditional steganography since it is adding an attribute to the cover image thus extending the amount of information presented.
Algorithms and Transformations: This technique hides data in mathematical functions that are often used in compression algorithms. The idea of this method is to hide the secret message in
the data bits in the least significant coefficients.
