Abstract

This paper deals with secret-key steganography approach of data hiding, it takes advantage of images with dark background or boundaries. The main goal is to hide a text in an image without drawing suspicion about the hidden information. The developed algorithm compares between the ASCII code of the text character and the value of the image pixel, if they are equal, the pixel position (else Character ASCII code) will be stored in the image border after encrypting it. This developed algorithm has been applied on (grayscale, 256-color, and true color) images, good results were obtained with true color and gray scale images . The 256-color images may draw suspicion about the hidden information. Binary and multispectral images cannot be used in this algorithm.
