Abstract

In this paper, we first propose an enhanced version of the proposed steganoraphic scheme using MORE protocol, increasing its security and performances. To do so, we use matrix permutation keys for the embedding (resp. extraction) process, and we give optimized embedding and retrieval algorithms leading to a 50% reduced time/computation complexity. Furthermore, we analyse the proposed schemes and discuss their vulnerability to steganalysis attacks, then we propose an enhancement against these attacks.
