 Meaning Of Steganography…

 The word steganography is derived from the Greek words “stegos”

meaning “cover” and “grafia” meaning “writing” defining it as “covered
writing”.
 Steganography is one such pro-security innovation in which secret data is
embedded in a cover. The notion of data hiding or steganography was
first introduced with the example of prisoners' secret message by
Simmons in 1983.
Here the message is transmitted between Bob & Alice and the third
person or HACKER is Oscar …
the message is hidden so that Oscar cannot read the message..

 Objective
The goal of steganography is to avoid drawing suspicion to the existence of a hidden message. This
approach of information hiding technique has recently became important in a number of
application area .
This project has following objectives:
 To product security tool based on steganography techniques.
 To explore techniques of hiding data using encryption module of this project
 To extract techniques of getting secret data using decryption module.
 Digital Watermarking
 The term digital watermarking was first appeared in 1993, when Tirkel
presented two watermarking techniques to hide the watermark data in
the images
A digital watermark is a kind of marker covertly embedded in a noise-
tolerant signal such as an audio, video or image data. It is typically used
to identify ownership of the copyright of such signal.
Example of Watermarking

The watermark can be hidden in

the digital data either visibly or
invisibly.
