Abstract

Steganography is the technique of hiding a confidential message in an ordinary message and the extraction of that secret message at its destination. Different carrier file formats can be used in steganography. Among these carrier file formats, digital images are the most popular. For this work, digital images are used. Here steganography is done on the skin portion of an image. First skin portion of an image is detected. Random pixels are selected from that detected region using a pseudo-random number generator. The bits of the secret message will be embedded on the LSB of these random pixels. An analysis is done to check the efficiency and robustness of the proposed method. The aim of this work is to show that steganography done using random pixel selection is less prone to outside attacks.
