Currently, steganography is considered the most powerful technique among other procedures to obscurethe presence of buried information within a cover body. The Greek word steganographic means coveredwriting. This term may be considered the most appropriate to bury confidential secret data via internetcorrespondence. Steganography technique can be defined as the science of safe electronics transmitting.So, the aims of the steganography technique are to hide the presence of conveying data from un unwillingparty. Various carrier object formats can be implemented, but color images become the more commonamong the other digital object. Currently, a lot of works adopted the image steganography as a coverobject. The contemporary secure image steganography technique offerings a transferring the embeddedconfidential information task to the intended end point without being perceived or even suspicious by theattackers. There exists a large variability of steganographic techniques for fixed secret data in colorimages. Some of these techniques are more complicated than others, and each of these methods haspositive and negative considered points. The objective of this work is to give a brief overview ofsteganography techniques using color images as a cover object by implementing MATLAB softwareusing the LSB algorithm. We found that the carrier image keeps the original feature without anydistortion caused by embedded secret information. The performance measured by PSNR and MSEtechnique and shown satisfied results.
