Steganography Software with Combination of Encryption Algorithms for Multimedia Files

Abstract

Steganography as the art of concealing messages to other object has been widely used in term of information security. The process of Steganography allows the hidden messages for not being apparent to an observer. Furthermore, there is another way that is commonly used to improve the security of the information, which is usually called Cryptography. Cryptography defines the art and science of transforming data into a sequence of bits that appears as random and meaningless for the observer. Most of the time, people use only one technique either Steganoraphy or Cryptography to secure the important information. However, the combination of Cryptography and Steganography that is proposed can be applied for enhancing the security of hiding information. The proposed concept also can provide an easiness of exchanging important messages secretly between a receiver and a sender with multimedia files as carriers of the messages.
