An Enriched Audio Steganography for Secret Message Communication Using Novel Embedding Technique

Abstract

In the last few years the infrastructure for distribution of digital media has grown rapidly. The distribution of such digital media provides an excellent opportunity for transmission of hidden information. Recently, digital steganography has received considerable interest and is used to hide information in carriers such as digital audio, images or video so that only the intended recipient is capable of retrieving the hidden information. This paper proposes a Novel Embedding technique Cross Bit Manipulation Algorithm (CBMA) which embeds the encrypted text file into an Audio file. Here the key of secret message is encrypted using Linear Subsequence Algorithm (LSA) and then embeds it to the Audio file using CBMA.
