Steganography: LSB Methodology

Abstract

In computer science, steganography is the science of concealing information within a computer file. Electronic communications may include the transport layer, document file, image file, program or protocol. When working we steganography two major work areas can be identified, steganography and steganalysis. The goal of steganography is to hide the fact that a covert communication is present within an innocuous communication, in this work area you have access to the original work. The goal of steganalysis is to detect when a covert communication is occurring, in this work area you don t have access to the original work. Aside of the background research performed to the concept of steganography we have done the following: - Prepared the environment to run and test the Digital Invisible Toolkit in a windows 7 laptop - Tested encode, decode, stegAnalysis and benchmark functions by providing a color image as the cover work and a notepad document as the message input. - Reviewed the battlesteg algorithm java code.
