SECURING ENCRYPTED SHARES USING STEGANOGRAPHY

摘要

When it comes to security, the two major objectives are maintaining the secrecy and confidentiality of the data. Data can be secured in 2 ways, the first being completely changing the form of data into non-readable form. While the second being the hiding of the important data into some other random data. In this paper, we propose a scheme wherein we use the combination of both these techniques i.e changing the form of data first and then hiding it into some other data. The approach involves using the concept of sieving, dividing and shuffling for encrypting the data and LSB steganography technique to hide the data.
