Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRandomized Pixel Selection for Enhancing LSB Algorithm Security against Brute-Force AttackAmmar Y. Tuama, Mohamad A. Mohamed, Abdullah Muhammed, Zurina M. HanapiSteganography is the science of concealing a secret message by embedding it into innocent carriers such as text, audio, images, etc. It plays a crucial role in a broad range of security applications such as securing message exchange, user authentication and copyrighting. One of the most effortless and widely-used techniques is the age-old Least Significant Bits (LSB) algorithm, which can … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 16 May 2017 · 7,448 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF IMAGE SECURITY BASED ON ENCRYPTED HYBRID COMPRESSIOND. Ramkumar, I. Jacob RaglendIn this research, we propose an image security scheme using hybrid compression techniques. In this scheme, the data is being provided two-fold security by both encryption stage and hiding stage. The data/message which has to be secured undergoes encryption technique at the initial stage. In this stage, the permutation algorithm is employed which requires a pair of numbers as a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 26 Apr 2014 · 6,719 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Chaotic Block Cipher for Real-Time MultimediaN. Radha, M. VenkatesuluProblem statement: The widespread use of image, audio and video data makes media content protection increasingly necessary and important. We propose a naive approach which treats the multimedia signal to be protected as a text and use proposed encryption design to encrypt the whole data stream. Upon reception, the entire cipher text data stream would be decrypted and playback can … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 27 Apr 2012 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Approaches to Ancient Crypto-Steganography MethodsA. Joseph Raphael, V. SundaramProblem statement: The requirement and ability to hide information from others has existed in the world for centuries. Cryptography and steganography are the most commonly used techniques for information sharing. The science of securing a data by encryption is cryptography whereas the method of hiding secret messages in other media is Steganography, so that the secret’s very existence is concealed. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 4 Nov 2011 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
