Abstract Cryptography and steganography are two important and related fields of infor- mation security. But, steganography is slightly different in the sense that it hides the ex- istence of secret information from unauthorized users. It is one of the most appealing research domains, have applications like copyright protection, data integrity protection and manipulation detection. Several steganography techniques have been proposed in literature. But, in this work a new information hiding algorithm is presented. The proposed technique de-correlates frequency components of cover image using discrete cosine transform and uses the least significant bits of frequency components for… More >
