Image steganography using LSB embedding and edge adaptive approach.

With the volume and diversity of data being created, stored, and sent through multiple channels continuously rising, protecting our personal data from a third party or criminal assault has never been more vital. This paper discusses the security issues associated with data transmission via the internet network, as well as how to ensure data security using image steganograph technique. Steganography is a way of encoding hidden information into an audio, video, image, or text file. The goal of steganography is to ensure that data/information transmitted between two parties remains secure by ensuring that no third party can detect or read it. It is one of the ways used to defend against harmful assaults on secret or sensitive data. Audio, video, text, and other forms of steganography techniques are also employed. In this paper, image steganograph is discussed, which, as the name suggests, is a technique to hide data inside an image file. The proposed method in this research takes use of pixels and binary codes in an image. To optimize the storage of data in an image, the zipped file is used before being converted to binary codes.
