A Review on Various Approaches for Data Hiding

Sukhjinder Pal Kaur | Sonika Jindal ^[2]

Abstract: The art and science of hiding information by embedding messages within other, seemingly harmless messages. Steganography works by replacing bits of useless or unused datain regular computer files (such as graphics, sound, text or even floppy disks) with bits of different, invisible information. This hidden information can be plain text, cipher text, or even images. Steganography sometimes is used when encryption is not permitted. Or, more commonly, steganography is used to supplement encryption. An encrypted file may still hide information using steganography, so even if the encrypted file is deciphered, the hidden message is not seen.
