In today's world of technology, Data security is essential. In many organizations information is critical. One of the ways to ensure security is by ensuring that the data is not visible to the intruder. This can be done by hiding the message behind some other objects. Here we achieve data security through the technique of Watermarking, also known as, Steganography. An algorithm for image Steganography has been proposed to hide a large amount of confidential data presented by secret color image. This algorithm is based on least significant bits (LSB), a technique used to hide data behind an image. An extra layer of security is added to the above algorithm where in-built technology of android, i.e. GPS is used so that the file can only be decrypted at specific location.
