A Framework for Encryption and Decryption Using Image Steganography
Balajee Maram · 2023
This research introduces a comprehensive framework that integrates encryption and steganography techniques for secure communication using digital photographs. Encryption obscures the content, while steganography hides encrypted data within selected image pixels, imperceptible to human observers. A pseudorandom number generator aids secure pixel selection. Retrieving the concealed message involves steganography's data extraction followed by decryption using the appropriate key. This approach safeguards sensitive data in various applications, ensuring the confidentiality and authenticity of digital communication.
