Abstract

The improvement in computer network communications make transmission of data comparatively simple and quick although, there are chances of attacks on them. The hidden information is an imperative problem for transferring video data from one party to third party. In the image processing field of research, steganography determines the legitimate meaning of hiding all the information from introducers and transmit the video data in secure, protected form so that the third party cannot reveal that message. Steganography is a branch of hiding information used for hiding corrective information in digital media such photographs, digital music, or digital video. This approach can be applied on graphics, images, text, audio and video, and so forth. In this paper, approach based on Interpolation and LSB (Least significant bit) technique with secret key and DWT is proposed for video steganography. This technique is applied for replacing the byte into M’s bit for transmitting video to the trusted receiver. The video in cover file is inputted and then steganography technique is applied that will converts this cover file into output file which is in the form of stego file.
