Implementation of Android Based Text to Image Steganography Using 512-Bit Algorithm with LSB Technique

Abstract

Steganography security is the main concern in today’s informative world. The fact is that communication takes place to hide information secretly. Steganography is the technique of hiding secret data within an ordinary, non-secret, file, text message and images. This technique avoids detection of the secret data then extracted at its destination. The main reason for using steganography is, we can hide any secret message behind its ordinary file. This work presents a unique technique for image steganography based on a 512-bit algorithm. The secure stego image is a very challenging task to give protection. Therefore we used the least significant bit (LSB) techniques for implementing stego and cover image. However, data encryption and decryption are used to embedded text and replace data into the least significant bit (LSB) for better approaches. Android-based interface used in encryption-decryption techniques that evaluated in this process.Contribution—this research work with 512-bit data simultaneously in a block cipher to reduce the time complexity of a system, android platform used for data encryption decryption process. Steganography model works with stego image that interacts with LSB techniques for data hiding.
