The security of information is regarded as one of the biggest issues in communication to safeguard information because of the development of computer technology and the internet. There are numerous stenographic techniques that can be used to covertly send information to a recipient using a suitable carrier, such as text, image, audio, video, or protocol. By utilizing additional mechanisms, such as audio and video files, the techniques of audio and video steganography can be employed to conceal sensitive information. The drawing of concealing info within other info is Steganography. In Steganography it is difficult to detect the being of any unseen gen. Digital images are the most common transporters. Because of recent advances in steganography, providing safety to personal insides, messages through digital images has become difficult. By means of steganalysis the presence of hidden information in carrier files can be easily revealed. This paper suggests a novel Steganography technique for secret set-ups between two isolated gatherings. The method involves Transfiguring a secret image into a text document, then encrypting the spawned text hooked on cypher text using a key (password) built encryption process, and finally embedding the cypher text on to a cover image. Only in specific pixels the hidden message bits will be inserted in this threshold-based scheme. The security to keep the message secret is attained by making it difficult for a third party to detect and retrieve the hidden message.
