Abstract

In the modern era of digital advancement of images, all information are exchanged through Internet, so for exchanging any secret message, either cryptography or steganography is used. Cryptography is a process of converting data in unreadable form. We can embed even the existence of data itself. In this paper, we proposed a new robust and secure method to embed secret message in an image. To increase robustness of message, intermediate significant bits (ISB) are used instead of using LSBs. To increase the security of message, encryption technique is used. The objective of the paper is to embed a message in bit plane such that it is robust against various attack and transformation (like scaling, cropping, filtering, etc.) and also maintaining the perceptual transparency of stego-image.
