Steganography is the science that involves communicating secret data in an appropriate
multimedia carrier, eg, image, audio, and video files. It comes under the assumption that if …

Steganalysis and steganography are the two different sides of the same coin.
Steganography tries to hide messages in plain sight while steganalysis tries to detect their …

To ensure the actual presence of a real legitimate trait in contrast to a fake self-manufactured
synthetic or reconstructed sample is a significant problem in biometric authentication, which …

This paper introduces a novel feature set for steganalysis of JPEG images. The features are
engineered as first-order statistics of quantized noise residuals obtained from the …

The success rate for blind or universal steganalysis lies in the ability to extract the statistical
footprints of image features. Further, the choice of machine learning (ML) algorithm is crucial …

This paper models the messages embedded by spatial least significant bit (LSB) matching
as independent noises to the cover image, and reveals that the histogram of the differences …

We are undoubtedly living in an age where we are exposed to a remarkable array of visual
imagery. While we may have historically had confidence in the integrity of this imagery …

Region duplication is a simple and effective operation to create digital image forgeries,
where a continuous portion of pixels in an image, after possible geometrical and illumination …

This book intends to provide a comprehensive overview on different aspects of mechanisms
and techniques for information security. It is written for students, researchers, and …

There has been an explosion of academic literature on steganography and steganalysis in
the past two decades. With a few exceptions, such papers address abstractions of the hiding …
