Sultan Almuhammadi, Ahmed Al-Shaaby · 2017
Digital communication witnesses a noticeable and continuous development in many applications in the Internet.Hence, a secure communication sessions must be provided.The security of data transmitted across a global network has turned into a key factor on the network performance measures.Cryptography and steganography are two important techniques that are used to provide network security.In this paper, we conduct a comparative study of steganography and cryptography.We survey a number of methods combining cryptography and steganography techniques in one system.Moreover, we present a classification of these methods, and compare them in terms of the algorithm used for encryption, the steganography technique and the file type used for covering the information.
