Enhanced Security Scheme with Visual Cryptography and Steganography
Sangeetha S. Goud, Swathi S. Patil and S. Vishal
Abstract:
In this paper we present enhanced multi level secret data hiding which integrates two different methods of encryption namely visual cryptography and steganography. First as a pre-processing step we are using a method called halftoning which is used to reduce the pixels and simplify the processing. After that visual cryptography is performed that produces the shares which forms first level of security and then steganography in which we hide the shares in different media like image, audio and video. Hence we get the enhanced multi level secret data hiding which improves the security over the network.
Keywords: Steganography, Visual Cryptography, Cover Media, Secret Data , Shares, Stego Key or Password .
