Abstract: Steganography techniques are used to secure
the secret message transmitted over an open
communication channel such as the internet. It aims to
embed secret data into a digital cover media, such as digital
audio, image, video, etc., without being suspicious looking.
New image steganography method that hides the secret
message inside the cover image using zero order hold (ZOH)
is considered. The major drawback of these methods is
amount of additive noise that creeps in the image which
directly affects the PSNR and the statistical properties of the
image. Moreover the embedding algorithms are applicable
mainly to lossless image-compression schemes like TIFF
images. Steganography (which is the point of research) is a
method in which the secret information is hidden inside a
carrier fileA novel method by with a traditional RDH
algorithm, and thus it is easy for the data hider to reversibly
embed data in the encrypted image. Zero Order Hold (ZOH)
and Least Significant Bit (LSB) are the technique for
providing until cover image. In LSB-3, ZOH and traditional
RDH algorithm is used for providing more security to embed
into stego image. The PSNR values of the proposed method
(ZOH) were higher than other methods, this means the
method's PSNR (stego image quality) is improved.
Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) technique is a secure way of
transmitting data inside a cover media, so that data and
cover file can be properly recovered by the receiver. The
main goal of this method is to hide a secret message in the
pixels of the cover image in such a way that the human eyes
are not able to differentiate between the original and the
stego-image.
Keywords: Zero order Hold, Peak signal noise ratio,

I. INTRODUCTION
Over the last two decades, the rapid development of
internet requires confidential information that needs to be
protected from the unauthorized users. This is
accomplished through data hiding method to hide secret
messages into a cover file. Steganography techniques are
used to secure the secret message transmitted over an
open communication channel such as the internet. But
message transmission over the internet is facing some
problems [2]. So securing communication channel for
transmitting data over the internet is needed, for these
two schemes are used to protect secret messages from
being stolen during transmission. The first scheme is a
cryptography which is a well-known method in which the
information is encrypted by using a key. Only the right
person with a right key can decode and recover the
original information successfully. The second one is a
Steganography method in which the secret information is
hidden inside a carrier file [2][3].
The ZOH techniques use the pixel gray levels and
their color values directly for encoding the message bits.
The ZOH techniques are the simplest schemes in terms of
embedding and extraction complexity [3]. The major
drawback of these methods is amount of additive noise
that creeps in the image which directly affects the PSNR
and the statistical properties of the image. Moreover the
embedding algorithms are applicable mainly to lossless
image-compression schemes like TIFF images. For lossy
compression schemes like JPEG, some of the message bits
get lost during the compression step [8].
The most common algorithm belonging to this
class of techniques is the Least Significant Bit (LSB)
replacement technique in which the least significant bit of
the binary representation of the pixel gray levels is used to
represent the message bit. This kind of embedding leads
to an addition of a noise of 0:5p on average in the pixels of
the image where p is the embedding rate in bits/pixel. It
also leads to an asymmetry and a grouping in the pixel
gray values (0,1); (2,3)... (254, 255) this asymmetry is
exploited in the attacks developed for this technique.
The embedding is performed using a pair of pixels
as a unit, where the LSB of the first pixel carries one bit of
information, and data hiding carries another bit of
information. It has been shown that embedding in this
fashion reduces the embedding noise introduced in the
cover signal [1][7]. In a multiple base number system has
been employed for embedding data bits. While embedding,
the human vision sensitivity has been taken care of. The

variance value for a block of pixels is used to compute the
number base to be used for embedding.
II. EFFECTIVE WORK
Generally a Steganography system has a cover file
that is used to cover the original message and the
steganography algorithm to carry out the required object
as shown in Fig.2.1 The result is a file called stego-file
which has the message inside it, hidden[4]. This stego file
is then sent to the receiver where the receiver retrieves
the message by applying the de-steganography. The goal
of modern steganography is to keep the message
undetectable.
Fig : Steganography Model
Sending encrypted messages frequently will draw
the attention of third parties, i.e. crackers and hackers,
perhaps causing attempts to break and reveal the original
messages. In a digital world, Steganography is introduced
to hide the existence of the communication by concealing a
secret message inside another unsuspicious message.
Steganography is often being used together with
cryptography and offers an acceptable amount of privacy
and security over the communication channel. This paper
presents an overview of text Steganography and a brief
history of Steganography along with various existing text-
based Steganography techniques L. Y. POR, B. Delina
[1](2008). The proposed method hides the secret message
inside the cover image by representing the secret message
characters using Braille method of reading and writing for
blind people that can save more than one-fourth of the
required space for embedding. From the experimental
results it is seen that the proposed method achieves
higher visual quality as indicated by the high peak signal-
to-noise ratio (PSNR) in spite of hiding a large number of
secret bits in the image Abdelmgeid Amin Ali, Al – Hussien
Seddik Saad (2013) [2]. overview of image Steganography,
its uses and techniques. It also attempts to identify the
requirements of a good Steganography algorithm and
briefly reflects on which Steganography techniques are
more suitable for which applications[3] Jagvinder Kaur,
Sanjeev Kumar(2011). One of the methods used in
security areas is Steganography. Steganography is the art
and science of hiding information by embedding messages
within cover media without attracting attention. The cover
media can be text, image, video or audio files. Text
Steganography is more difficult than others due to the
difficulty in finding redundant information in text file. This
paper presents a new idea for text Steganography by using
Unicode standard characters, (which have the non-
printing properties) to encode the letters of English
language and embedding the secret message letter by
letter into the cover-text. This method has high hiding
capacity, it can hide (K+1) letters in a text with K
characters and it does not make any apparent changes in
the original text. So it satisfies perceptual transparency [4]
Akbas E. Ali(2010).
III. PREVIOUS IMPLEMENTATIONS
The main terminologies used in steganography
systems are: the cover file, secret message, stego file,
embedding algorithm and extraction algorithm. The cover
file is defined as the original file such as image, video,
audio, text, or some other digital media used to embedding
the secret message. The secret message is defined as the
message you want to embed inside the cover file, it is
called payload. Stego file is defined as the file after
embedding the secret message in the cover file; it should
have similar properties to that of the cover. The
embedding algorithm is the method that used to embed
the secret message in the cover image. The extraction
algorithm is the method that retrieves the secret message
from the stego image In the Steganography system, before
the hiding process, the sender must select the carrier (i.e.
image, video, audio or text) then select the secret message.
The effective and appropriate Steganography algorithm
must be selected that able to encode the message in more
secure technique. Then the sender may send the Stego file
by email or chatting, or by other techniques. After
receiving the message by the receiver, the message can be
decoded by using the extracting algorithm
Zero Order Hold Method
There are many methods for zooming image, Zero
order hold is one of this. In zero order hold method, two
adjacent elements are picked from the rows respectively
and then the average value between two pixel (add them
and divide the result by two then take the integer value) is
calculated, and their result is placed in between those two
elements. First, this row is done wisely and then the result
is taken and do this column is don wisely as the same way.
This is one of the simplest and easiest methods of hiding
the data in images. In this method, the binary data form is

hidden into the LSBs of the carrier bytes or in pixels of
image. The overall change to the image is so small that
human eye would not be able to discover. In 24-bit images
each 8-bit value refers to the red, green and blue color. But
in 8–bit images each pixel is of 8-bits, so each pixel stores
maximum 256 colors.

8) Add 1 to count.
9) Repeat steps from 4 to 8 until the whole M has been
embedded in C.

Properties of z transformation
Linearity Let us consider summation of two discrete
functions f (k) and g (k) such that
P x f ( k ) + qg ( k)
such that p and q are constants, now on taking the Laplace
transform we have by property of linearity:
Z [ p x f ( k ) + q x g ( K ) =p x Z[f (k ) ] +q x Z [g ( k ) ]
Change of Scale: let us consider a function f(k), on taking
the z transform here have
Z [ f (k ) ] = f ( z )
The Zero-Order Hold block samples and holds its
input for the specified sample period. The block accepts
one input and generates one output, both of which can be
scalar or vector. If the input is a vector, all elements of the
vector are held for the same sample period. You specify
the time between samples with the Sample time
parameter. A setting of -1 means the Sample times
inherited. A causal continuous-time signal x (t) under
consideration is defined as
X (t ) =* ( ) | +
This block provides a mechanism for discrediting
one or more signals in time, or resembling the signal at a
different rate. If your model contains MultiMate
transitions, you must add Zero-Order Hold blocks between
the fast-to-slow transitions. The sample rate of the Zero-
Order Hold must be set to that of the slower block. For
slow-to-fast transitions, use the unit delay block. For more
information about multi rate transitions, refer to the
Simulink or the Real-Time Workshop documentation.
Message embedding Procedure
S(i,j) = C(i,j) - 1, if LSB(C(i,j)) = 1 and SM = 0
S(i,j) = C(i,j) + 1, if LSB(C(i,j)) = 0 and SM = 1
S(I,j) = C(i,j), if LSB(C(i,j)) = SM
Where LSB(C(i, j)) stands for the LSB of cover image
C(i,j) and “SM” is the next message bit to be embedded.
S(i,j) is the stego image. Here can use images to hide things
if we replace the last bit of every color’s byte with a bit
from the message.

Performance Measurements
The challenge of using Steganography in cover images
is to hide as much data as possible with the least
noticeable difference in the stego-image. A tractable
objective measures for this property are the Mean Squared
Error (MSE) and the Peak-Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR)
between the cover image and the stego image. Mean
Square Error (MSE): It is the measure used to quantify the
difference between the initial and the distorted or noisy
image.
Where X and Y are the image coordinates, M and N are
the dimensions of the image, Sxy is the generated stego-
image and Cxy is the cover image. From (MSE) we can find
Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) which measures the
quality of the image by comparing the original image with
the stego-image. (PSNR) is used to evaluate the quality of
the stego-image after embedding the secret message in the
cover. It is computed using the following formula:
( )
Where, C max holds the maximum value in the image
that is 255. Finally, other associated measures are the
Steganographic capacity, which is the maximum
information that can safely embedded in a work without
having statistically detectable objects. An important note
is that, for all the cover images, PSNR are more than 37 dB,
this means that the proposed Steganography algorithm
provides very good imperceptibility performance and the
stego images can't be detected.
IV. PROPOSED ANALYSIS
LSB and RDH Algorithm Implementation Using
Steganography
Data hiding is referred to as a process to hide data
(representing some information) into cover media. That is,
the data hiding process links two sets of data, a set of the
embedded data and another set of the cover media data.
The relationship between these two sets of data
characterizes different applications. For instance, in covert
communications, the hidden data may often be irrelevant
to the cover media. In authentication, however, the
embedded data are closely related to the cover media. In
these two types of applications, invisibility of hidden data
is an important requirement. In most cases of data hiding,
the cover media will experience some distortion due to
data hiding and cannot be inverted back to the original
media.

4. Without loss of generality, assume a < b. move the
whole part of the H(x) with x ( ) to the right
by 1 unit . this means that all the pixel grayscale
values (satisfying x ( ) are added by 1.
5. Scan the image, once meet the pixel (whose
grayscale value is a), check the to be embedded
bit. If the to be embedded bit is “1”, the pixel gray

scale value is changed to a+1. If the bit is “0”, the
pixel value remains a.
Algorithm to Embedded the text message:
Step 1: Read the cover image and the text message which
is to be hid den in the cover image.
Step 2: Convert the text message in binary format.
Step 3: Calculate the LSB of each pixel of the cover image.
Step 4: Replace the cover image of the LSB with each bit of
secret message one by one.
Step 5: Write stego image
Step 6: Calculate the Mean square Error (MSE) and the
Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the stego image.
Data Encryption Algorithm
Step 1: Extract the pixels of the cover image.
Step 2: Extract the characters of the text.
Step 3: Extract the characters from the Stego key.
Step 4: Choose first pixel and pick characters of the Stego
key and place it in first component of pixel.
Step 5: Place some terminating symbol to indicate end of
the key. 0 has been used as a terminating symbol in this
algorithm.
Step 6: Insert characters of text in each rgb component of
next pixels by replacing it.
Step 7: Repeat step 6 till all the characters has been
embedded.

data bits for DWT coefficients.
Step 4: Obtain stego image.
Step 5: Calculate the Mean square Error (MSE) and Peak
signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the stego image.

Steganography
In this framework, a content owner encrypts the
original image using a standard cipher with an encryption
key. After producing the encrypted image, the content
owner hands over it to a data hider (e.g., a database
manager) and the data hider can embed some auxiliary
data into the encrypted image by losslessly vacating some
according to a data hiding key.
Least Significant Bit Hiding Technique (LSB)
LSB is the most popular Steganography technique.
It hides the secret message in the RGB image based on it
its binary coding. An example about pixel values and
shows the secret message. LSB algorithm is used to hide
the secret messages by using algorithm 1. LSB makes the
changes in the image resolution quite clear as well as it is
easy to attack.

LSB hiding technique hide the secret message
directly in the least two significant bits in the image pixels,
hence that affect the image resolution, which reduce the
image quality and make the image easy to attack. As well
as this method is already has been attacked and broken.
Therefore a new technique that able to make the secret
message more secure and enhance the quality of the
image.
New method in image Steganography
Fig. 4.4 Least Significant Bit Hiding Technique
The message retrieving is done as per the algorithm
given below
Step 1) Extract Red, Green and Blue Components of pixel
intensity values of Stego image.
Step 2) Take successive Red, Green and Blue component
values of
pixels and convert them into array of values for message
and Stego image.
Step 3) Convert every decimal value into 8 bit binary
equivalent for Stego image.
Step .4) Retrieval of the message bit is done by using the
XOR operation on the LSB and Next to LSB.
1. If it is 1 then message bit is 1.
2. If it is 0 then message bit is 0.
Step 5) If during embedding the LSB 3 method is used then
retrieval is done by performing XOR operation on LSB,
next to LSB and Next to Next to LSB‟s.
1. If the result of XOR operation is 0, it means
the decoded message bit value is 0 and
2. If the result is 1, it means that the decoded
message bit value is 1.
Step 6) Convert every 8 bits to form a byte whose decimal
value is the pixel intensity if the message embedded is a
gray scale image otherwise this decimal value forms the
intensity of Red Component of the first pixel of the Secret
image, if the message embedded is a 64 bit color image. If
the message that is embedded is a text message then after
every 7 bits are Retrieved convert them into decimal
which forms the ASCII code of the 1st character. In this
manner these steps are continued till the full message is
retrieved.

CONCLUSION
Steganography are two important branch of
information security. Steganography is the art and science
of hiding communication .Steganography involves hiding
information so it appears that no information is hidden at
all. Image steganography has many applications, especially
in today’s modern and high-tech world. Steganography
have many advantages but it have some limitations also.
Privacy and secrecy is a concern for most people on the
internet. Image steganography allows for two parties to
communicate secretly and covertly. It will focus to develop
a high security model for secret data, which uses
Steganography. Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) technique
is a secure way of transmitting data inside a cover media is
used for encryption. as shown in comparison tables, after
doing the same experiments using the ZOH, four different
methods, the PSNR values of the proposed method (ZOH)
were higher than other methods, this means the method's
PSNR (stego image quality) is improved. As a future work,
we will try to improve Maximum Hiding Capacity (MHC)
by improving the secret message using image
steganography method (Image Steganography Method by
Using Braille Method of Blind People). by representing the
secret message characters by using Braille method of
reading and writing for blind people that can save more
than one-fourth of the required space for embedding.
FUTURE WORK
There is two different methods for lossless data
embedding for JPEG images. The first method is based on
compression of LSBs of a selected quantized DCT
coefficient from all blocks. The second method uses a
special trick to preprocess the image to allow trivially
lossless data embedding. It is based on manipulation of the
quantization table. Finally, it describe three important
applications of the lossless data embedding − lossless
authentication of images, detection of LSB steganography
in images, and lossless robust watermarking. It developed
method is considered an effective method which achieved
high level of capacity, higher PSNR for security and lower
MSE for robustness against attacks. As A new image
steganography method will be developed so frequency
domain like MSE Algorithm will be used instead of special
domain and develop the cryptography method by using
asymmetric method like RSA method to enhance the
security.

Zero Order Hold (ZOH) and Least Significant Bit (LSB) are the technique for providing until cover image. In LSB-3, ZOH and traditional RDH algorithm is used for providing more security to embed into stego image. The PSNR values of the proposed method (ZOH) were higher than other methods, this means the method's PSNR (stego image quality) is improved. Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) technique is a secure way of transmitting data inside a cover media, so that data and cover file can be properly recovered by the receiver. The main goal of this method is to hide a secret message in the pixels of the cover image in such a way that the human eyes are not able to differentiate between the original and the stego-image. Keywords: Zero order Hold, Peak signal noise ratio, Reversible Data Hiding, Lease Significant Bit, stego images. I. INTRODUCTION Over the last two decades, the rapid development of internet requires confidential information that needs to be protected from the unauthorized users. This is accomplished through data hiding method to hide secret messages into a cover file. Steganography techniques are used to secure the secret message transmitted over an open communication channel such as the internet. But message transmission over the internet is facing some problems [2]. So securing communication channel for transmitting data over the internet is needed, for these two schemes are used to protect secret messages from being stolen during transmission. The first scheme is a cryptography which is a well-known method in which the information is encrypted by using a key. Only the right person with a right key can decode and recover the original information successfully. The second one is a Steganography method in which the secret information is hidden inside a carrier file [2][3]. The ZOH techniques use the pixel gray levels and their color values directly for encoding the message bits. The ZOH techniques are the simplest schemes in terms of embedding and extraction complexity [3]. The major drawback of these methods is amount of additive noise that creeps in the image which directly affects the PSNR and the statistical properties of the image. Moreover the embedding algorithms are applicable mainly to lossless image-compression schemes like TIFF images. For lossy compression schemes like JPEG, some of the message bits get lost during the compression step [8]. The most common algorithm belonging to this class of techniques is the Least Significant Bit (LSB) replacement technique in which the least significant bit of the binary representation of the pixel gray levels is used to represent the message bit. This kind of embedding leads to an addition of a noise of 0:5p on average in the pixels of the image where p is the embedding rate in bits/pixel. It also leads to an asymmetry and a grouping in the pixel gray values (0,1); (2,3)... (254, 255) this asymmetry is exploited in the attacks developed for this technique. The embedding is performed using a pair of pixels as a unit, where the LSB of the first pixel carries one bit of information, and data hiding carries another bit of information. It has been shown that embedding in this fashion reduces the embedding noise introduced in the cover signal [1][7]. In a multiple base number system has been employed for embedding data bits. While embedding, the human vision sensitivity has been taken care of. The

II. EFFECTIVE WORK Generally a Steganography system has a cover file that is used to cover the original message and the steganography algorithm to carry out the required object as shown in Fig.2.1 The result is a file called stego-file which has the message inside it, hidden[4]. This stego file is then sent to the receiver where the receiver retrieves the message by applying the de-steganography. The goal of modern steganography is to keep the message undetectable. Fig : Steganography Model Sending encrypted messages frequently will draw the attention of third parties, i.e. crackers and hackers, perhaps causing attempts to break and reveal the original messages. In a digital world, Steganography is introduced to hide the existence of the communication by concealing a secret message inside another unsuspicious message. Steganography is often being used together with cryptography and offers an acceptable amount of privacy and security over the communication channel. This paper presents an overview of text Steganography and a brief history of Steganography along with various existing text- based Steganography techniques L. Y. POR, B. Delina [1](2008). The proposed method hides the secret message inside the cover image by representing the secret message characters using Braille method of reading and writing for blind people that can save more than one-fourth of the required space for embedding. From the experimental results it is seen that the proposed method achieves higher visual quality as indicated by the high peak signal- to-noise ratio (PSNR) in spite of hiding a large number of secret bits in the image Abdelmgeid Amin Ali, Al – Hussien Seddik Saad (2013) [2]. overview of image Steganography, its uses and techniques. It also attempts to identify the requirements of a good Steganography algorithm and briefly reflects on which Steganography techniques are more suitable for which applications[3] Jagvinder Kaur, Sanjeev Kumar(2011). One of the methods used in security areas is Steganography. Steganography is the art and science of hiding information by embedding messages within cover media without attracting attention. The cover media can be text, image, video or audio files. Text Steganography is more difficult than others due to the difficulty in finding redundant information in text file. This paper presents a new idea for text Steganography by using Unicode standard characters, (which have the non- printing properties) to encode the letters of English language and embedding the secret message letter by letter into the cover-text. This method has high hiding capacity, it can hide (K+1) letters in a text with K characters and it does not make any apparent changes in the original text. So it satisfies perceptual transparency [4] Akbas E. Ali(2010). III. PREVIOUS IMPLEMENTATIONS The main terminologies used in steganography systems are: the cover file, secret message, stego file, embedding algorithm and extraction algorithm. The cover file is defined as the original file such as image, video, audio, text, or some other digital media used to embedding the secret message. The secret message is defined as the message you want to embed inside the cover file, it is called payload. Stego file is defined as the file after embedding the secret message in the cover file; it should have similar properties to that of the cover. The embedding algorithm is the method that used to embed the secret message in the cover image. The extraction algorithm is the method that retrieves the secret message from the stego image In the Steganography system, before the hiding process, the sender must select the carrier (i.e. image, video, audio or text) then select the secret message. The effective and appropriate Steganography algorithm must be selected that able to encode the message in more secure technique. Then the sender may send the Stego file by email or chatting, or by other techniques. After receiving the message by the receiver, the message can be decoded by using the extracting algorithm Zero Order Hold Method There are many methods for zooming image, Zero order hold is one of this. In zero order hold method, two adjacent elements are picked from the rows respectively and then the average value between two pixel (add them and divide the result by two then take the integer value) is calculated, and their result is placed in between those two elements. First, this row is done wisely and then the result is taken and do this column is don wisely as the same way. This is one of the simplest and easiest methods of hiding the data in images. In this method, the binary data form is

The overall change to the image is so small that human eye would not be able to discover. In 24-bit images each 8-bit value refers to the red, green and blue color. But in 8–bit images each pixel is of 8-bits, so each pixel stores maximum 256 colors. Fig : Zero order Embedding ZOH Embedding Algorithm Input: Cover Image C; Secret Message M. Output: StegoImage S. Steps: 1) Split C into 3 channels Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B). 2) Convert image (B) to one column x. 3) Split M into characters. 4) Take m from M. 5) Convert m into binary bin. 6) Take pixel 1 from bin. 7) Calculate average of x (count) and x (count+1). If end (average)! =end (bin) then x (count+1) = x (count+1) +2 8) Add 1 to count. 9) Repeat steps from 4 to 8 until the whole M has been embedded in C. 10) Merge the 3 channels R, G, y again to construct the StegoImage S. Properties of z transformation Linearity Let us consider summation of two discrete functions f (k) and g (k) such that P x f ( k ) + qg ( k) such that p and q are constants, now on taking the Laplace transform we have by property of linearity: Z [ p x f ( k ) + q x g ( K ) =p x Z[f (k ) ] +q x Z [g ( k ) ] Change of Scale: let us consider a function f(k), on taking the z transform here have Z [ f (k ) ] = f ( z ) The Zero-Order Hold block samples and holds its input for the specified sample period. The block accepts one input and generates one output, both of which can be scalar or vector. If the input is a vector, all elements of the vector are held for the same sample period. You specify the time between samples with the Sample time parameter. A setting of -1 means the Sample times inherited. A causal continuous-time signal x (t) under consideration is defined as X (t ) =* ( ) | + This block provides a mechanism for discrediting one or more signals in time, or resembling the signal at a different rate. If your model contains MultiMate transitions, you must add Zero-Order Hold blocks between the fast-to-slow transitions. The sample rate of the Zero- Order Hold must be set to that of the slower block. For slow-to-fast transitions, use the unit delay block. For more information about multi rate transitions, refer to the Simulink or the Real-Time Workshop documentation. Message embedding Procedure S(i,j) = C(i,j) - 1, if LSB(C(i,j)) = 1 and SM = 0 S(i,j) = C(i,j) + 1, if LSB(C(i,j)) = 0 and SM = 1 S(I,j) = C(i,j), if LSB(C(i,j)) = SM Where LSB(C(i, j)) stands for the LSB of cover image C(i,j) and “SM” is the next message bit to be embedded. S(i,j) is the stego image. Here can use images to hide things if we replace the last bit of every color’s byte with a bit from the message.

International Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (IRJET) e-ISSN: 2395-0056 Volume: 04 Issue: 08 | Aug -2017 www.irjet.net p-ISSN: 2395-0072 © 2017, IRJET | Impact Factor value: 5.181 | ISO 9001:2008 Certified Journal | Page 201 Performance Measurements The challenge of using Steganography in cover images is to hide as much data as possible with the least noticeable difference in the stego-image. A tractable objective measures for this property are the Mean Squared Error (MSE) and the Peak-Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) between the cover image and the stego image. Mean Square Error (MSE): It is the measure used to quantify the difference between the initial and the distorted or noisy image. Where X and Y are the image coordinates, M and N are the dimensions of the image, Sxy is the generated stego- image and Cxy is the cover image. From (MSE) we can find Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) which measures the quality of the image by comparing the original image with the stego-image. (PSNR) is used to evaluate the quality of the stego-image after embedding the secret message in the cover. It is computed using the following formula: ( ) Where, C max holds the maximum value in the image that is 255. Finally, other associated measures are the Steganographic capacity, which is the maximum information that can safely embedded in a work without having statistically detectable objects. An important note is that, for all the cover images, PSNR are more than 37 dB, this means that the proposed Steganography algorithm provides very good imperceptibility performance and the stego images can't be detected. IV. PROPOSED ANALYSIS LSB and RDH Algorithm Implementation Using Steganography Data hiding is referred to as a process to hide data (representing some information) into cover media. That is, the data hiding process links two sets of data, a set of the embedded data and another set of the cover media data. The relationship between these two sets of data characterizes different applications. For instance, in covert communications, the hidden data may often be irrelevant to the cover media. In authentication, however, the embedded data are closely related to the cover media. In these two types of applications, invisibility of hidden data is an important requirement. In most cases of data hiding, the cover media will experience some distortion due to data hiding and cannot be inverted back to the original media.

In the H(x), find the maximum point h(a). a , - and Minimum point h(b), b , - 3. If the minimum point h(b) > 0, recode the coordinate (i,j) of those pixels and the pixels grayscale value b as overhead book keeping information. Then set h(b) =0. 4. Without loss of generality, assume a < b. move the whole part of the H(x) with x ( ) to the right by 1 unit . this means that all the pixel grayscale values (satisfying x ( ) are added by 1. 5. Scan the image, once meet the pixel (whose grayscale value is a), check the to be embedded bit. If the to be embedded bit is “1”, the pixel gray

If the bit is “0”, the pixel value remains a. Algorithm to Embedded the text message: Step 1: Read the cover image and the text message which is to be hid den in the cover image. Step 2: Convert the text message in binary format. Step 3: Calculate the LSB of each pixel of the cover image. Step 4: Replace the cover image of the LSB with each bit of secret message one by one. Step 5: Write stego image Step 6: Calculate the Mean square Error (MSE) and the Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the stego image. Data Encryption Algorithm Step 1: Extract the pixels of the cover image. Step 2: Extract the characters of the text. Step 3: Extract the characters from the Stego key. Step 4: Choose first pixel and pick characters of the Stego key and place it in first component of pixel. Step 5: Place some terminating symbol to indicate end of the key. 0 has been used as a terminating symbol in this algorithm. Step 6: Insert characters of text in each rgb component of next pixels by replacing it. Step 7: Repeat step 6 till all the characters has been embedded. Algorithm to Stego retrieves the text message Step 1: Read the cover image and text message that has to be hidden in the cover image. Step 2: Convert the text message into binary. Apply 2D Haar transform on the cover image. Step 3: Obtain horizontal and vertical filtering coefficients of the cover image and the cover image is then added with data bits for DWT coefficients. Step 4: Obtain stego image. Step 5: Calculate the Mean square Error (MSE) and Peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the stego image. Fig : Chart of Decryption and Extraction Crypto- Steganography In this framework, a content owner encrypts the original image using a standard cipher with an encryption key. After producing the encrypted image, the content owner hands over it to a data hider (e.g., a database manager) and the data hider can embed some auxiliary data into the encrypted image by losslessly vacating some according to a data hiding key. Least Significant Bit Hiding Technique (LSB) LSB is the most popular Steganography technique. It hides the secret message in the RGB image based on it its binary coding. An example about pixel values and shows the secret message. LSB algorithm is used to hide the secret messages by using algorithm 1. LSB makes the changes in the image resolution quite clear as well as it is easy to attack. Fig: Least Significant Bit Hiding Technique

As well as this method is already has been attacked and broken. Therefore a new technique that able to make the secret message more secure and enhance the quality of the image. New method in image Steganography Fig. 4.4 Least Significant Bit Hiding Technique The message retrieving is done as per the algorithm given below Step 1) Extract Red, Green and Blue Components of pixel intensity values of Stego image. Step 2) Take successive Red, Green and Blue component values of pixels and convert them into array of values for message and Stego image. Step 3) Convert every decimal value into 8 bit binary equivalent for Stego image. Step .4) Retrieval of the message bit is done by using the XOR operation on the LSB and Next to LSB. 1. If it is 1 then message bit is 1. 2. If it is 0 then message bit is 0. Step 5) If during embedding the LSB 3 method is used then retrieval is done by performing XOR operation on LSB, next to LSB and Next to Next to LSB‟s. 1. If the result of XOR operation is 0, it means the decoded message bit value is 0 and 2. If the result is 1, it means that the decoded message bit value is 1. Step 6) Convert every 8 bits to form a byte whose decimal value is the pixel intensity if the message embedded is a gray scale image otherwise this decimal value forms the intensity of Red Component of the first pixel of the Secret image, if the message embedded is a 64 bit color image. If the message that is embedded is a text message then after every 7 bits are Retrieved convert them into decimal which forms the ASCII code of the 1st character. In this manner these steps are continued till the full message is retrieved. V. EVALUATION RESULT For Experimental purpose, 2 sets (24 bit color) of fifteen cover images each, one set of size 512 X 512 and the other of size 1024 X 1024 for all the three methods (LSB 2, LSB 3 and Parity) are used. Ten secret message images and 4 Microsoft word documents are used for embedding. The 10 message images are 128X128, 24-bit color images and out of the four Microsoft word documents 1st is 1262 words (6764 characters), 2nd message is the famous 396 words (1988 characters), the 3rd is a 4171 words, and 23496 characters, and the 4th 78 words and 486 characters. All cover images, message images and text messages are given in appendix. The Experimental results obtained for some of the Cover images, Stego Images. It represents 24 bit cover images of size 512 X 512. stego images using LSB 2 XOR method, stego images using LSB 3 XOR method stego images using LSB parity method respectively with message image 1 embedded in it. are Cover images of size 1024 X 1024. Stego images using LSB 2 bit XOR algorithm are Stego images using LSB 3 bit XOR algorithm are Stego images using LSB parity method with message 1 embedded in it. For performance evaluation of different methods the parameters used are Mean Squared Error (MSE), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Average Fractional Change in Pixel Value (AFCPV), Percentage of Bytes Changed, Percentage change in LSB‟s (from Zero to One and One to Zero Mean Square Error (MSE) The MSE represents the cumulative squared error between the decompressed/reconstructed and the original image.

Percentage of Bytes changes is computed as P = ( ) Retrieval Accuracy (RA) This parameter is used to measure the retrieval accuracy of the secret message from stego image. P = ( ) The values of MSE, PSNR, AFCPV, Percentage of bytes changed, Changes (0 to 1) in percent and Changes (1 to 0) in percent for embedding a message image Cover images 16 -30 of size 1024 X 1024 using LSB 2-bit Method.

CONCLUSION Steganography are two important branch of information security. Steganography is the art and science of hiding communication .Steganography involves hiding information so it appears that no information is hidden at all. Image steganography has many applications, especially in today’s modern and high-tech world. Steganography have many advantages but it have some limitations also. Privacy and secrecy is a concern for most people on the internet. Image steganography allows for two parties to communicate secretly and covertly. It will focus to develop a high security model for secret data, which uses Steganography. Reversible Data Hiding (RDH) technique is a secure way of transmitting data inside a cover media is used for encryption. as shown in comparison tables, after doing the same experiments using the ZOH, four different methods, the PSNR values of the proposed method (ZOH) were higher than other methods, this means the method's PSNR (stego image quality) is improved. As a future work, we will try to improve Maximum Hiding Capacity (MHC) by improving the secret message using image steganography method (Image Steganography Method by Using Braille Method of Blind People). by representing the secret message characters by using Braille method of reading and writing for blind people that can save more than one-fourth of the required space for embedding. FUTURE WORK There is two different methods for lossless data embedding for JPEG images. The first method is based on compression of LSBs of a selected quantized DCT coefficient from all blocks. The second method uses a special trick to preprocess the image to allow trivially lossless data embedding. It is based on manipulation of the quantization table. Finally, it describe three important applications of the lossless data embedding − lossless authentication of images, detection of LSB steganography in images, and lossless robust watermarking. It developed method is considered an effective method which achieved high level of capacity, higher PSNR for security and lower MSE for robustness against attacks. As A new image steganography method will be developed so frequency domain like MSE Algorithm will be used instead of special domain and develop the cryptography method by using asymmetric method like RSA method to enhance the security.
