Mitigating the degenerations in Microsoft Word documents : An improved steganographic method
Anand Kumar Gupta, Deepak Kumar Barr, Deepali Sharma · 2009
Steganography is the science of writing hidden messages in such a way that no one apart from the sender and intended recipient even realizes if there is any hidden message. Most of the research done before in this area is focussed on images, audios, and videos but a less amount of work has been done on MS Word documents which is identified with certain shortcomings. One of the major shortcoming in the previous method being large number of degenerations which were produced to embed a message, making it susceptible to active warden attack. This paper proposes to mitigate the shortcoming of the previous approach by decreasing the number of degenerations for the same. Experimental results will show the feasibility of our approach.
