Hiding Secret Text in Quick Response Code and Transforming the Position of the Secret Data using Rotation Transformation
Venkatesan Ramya, G. Gopinath · Research Journal of Applied Sciences Engineering and Technology · 2014
In order to provide high security and safety in the field of information hiding, this study proposes a novel technology using Steganography. An exotic steganographic algorithm, is used in this study, which Hides the secret text data in a 2D plane (Here, in our case let the 2D plane be the QR code), after encryption and the position of the secret data will be changed using rotation transformation. The proposed algorithm has been tested under various imperceptibility characters such as PSNR, MSE, Human Vision Quality Metrics and Histograms are compared to both cover image and the stego image. This novel algorithm shows Lower MSE, higher PSNR values and it is evident that the proposed algorithm is robust to JPEG attacks.
