ABSTRACT
Steganography is the art and science of writing hidden messages in such
a way that no one apart from the sender and intended recipient even
realizes there is a hidden message.
There are often cases when it is not possible to send messages openly or in
encrypted form. This is where steganography can come into play. While
cryptography provides privacy, steganography is intended to provide secrecy.
This project deals with hiding of text behind multimedia, i.e. digital images,
wave audio, real media audio, etc. Cryptographic cipher is used before hiding text
to make this procedure more secure. The GUI has been given a funky look by
using flash.

Introduction
The word steganography is of Greek origin and means "covered, or hidden
writing". Steganography is the art and science of communicating in a way which
hides the existence of the communication. By contrast, cryptography obscures the
meaning of a message, but it does not conceal the fact that there is a message.
Steganography and Cryptography
Cryptography — the science of writing in secret codes — addresses all of the
elements necessary for secure communication over an insecure channel, namely
privacy, confidentiality, key exchange, authentication, and non-repudiation. But
cryptography does not always provide safe communication. Consider an
environment where the very use of encrypted messages causes suspicion. Consider
the following text file; what else is it likely to be if not encrypted?

The message above is a sentence in English that is encrypted using Pretty Good Privacy (PGP),
probably the most commonly used e-mail encryption software today.
The advantage of steganography over cryptography alone is that messages do not
attract attention to themselves, to messengers, or to recipients. Whereas the goal of
cryptography is to make data unreadable by a third party, the goal of
steganography is to hide the data from a third party. Often, steganography and
cryptography are used together to ensure security of the covert message.

CHAPTER 1

SCOPE OF STEGANOGRAPHY
Steganography is a very interesting and advantageous science these days and has
following uses:
 Digital Watermarking
To protect a copyright on information. Photo collections, sold on CD,
often have hidden messages in the photos which allow detection of
unauthorized use. The same technique applied to DVDs is even more
effective, since the industry builds DVD recorders to detect and disallow
copying of protected DVDs.
 The simplest and oldest are used in map making, where cartographers
sometimes add a tiny fictional street to their maps, allowing them to
prosecute copycats.
 A similar trick is to add fictional names to mailing lists as a check
against unauthorized resellers.
 Steganography doesn't just apply to written forms of communication. Radio
and TV messages, from World War II to today, can be used to hide coded
or hidden messages. Some government sources suspect that Osama bin
Laden's pre-recorded videos that are re-played on TV stations around the
world contain hidden messages.
 Even biological data, stored on DNA, may be a candidate for hidden
messages, as biotech companies seek to prevent unauthorized use of their
genetically engineered material. The technology is already in place for
this: three New York researchers successfully hid a secret message in a
DNA sequence and sent it across the country.
 Steganography can also be used to allow communication within an
underground community.
 Steganography is used by some modern printers, including HP and Xerox
brand color laser printers. Tiny yellow dots are added to each page. The
dots are barely visible and contain encoded printer serial numbers, as well
as date and time stamps.

TECHNOLOGIES USED
 Visual Studio.NET version 2.0 or higher or Visual C#.NET 8.0 or higher
C# is an object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft as
part of the .NET initiative and later approved as a standard by ECMA (ECMA-
334) and ISO (ISO/IEC 23270). Anders Hejlsberg leads development of the
C# language, which has a procedural, object-oriented syntax based on C++
and includes influences from aspects of several other programming
languages (most notably Delphi and Java) with a particular emphasis on
simplification.
In this project all the framework has been designed in C#. It deals with the
main Algorithms of this project.
 Macromedia Flash Professional 8.0
Flash is commonly used to create animation, advertisements, various web
page components, to integrate video into web pages, and more recently, to
develop rich Internet applications. Files in the SWF (pronounced: Swif)
format, traditionally called "Flash movies" or "Flash games", usually have a
.swf file extension and may be an object of a web page, strictly "played" in a
standalone Flash Player, or incorporated into a Projector, a self-executing
Flash movie (with the .exe extension in Microsoft Windows).
In this project Flash has been used to give the application a stylish look and
some animaions. The SWF movies has been associated with the basic
platform of C# and has become the background of GUI.

CHAPTER 2

THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
ANALYSIS OF DIGITAL IMAGE
An image file is merely a binary file containing a binary representation of
the color or light intensity of each picture element (pixel) comprising the image.
Images typically use either 8-bit or 24-bit color.
When using 8-bit color, there is a definition of up to 256 colors forming a
palette for this image, each color denoted by an 8-bit value.
A 24-bit color scheme, as the term suggests, uses 24 bits per pixel and
provides a much better set of colors. In this case, each pixel is represented by three
bytes, each byte representing the intensity of the three primary colors red, green,
and blue (RGB), respectively. The color orange, for example, would be displayed
with red set to 100% , green set to 50% and no blue .
The size of an image file, then, is directly related to the number of pixels
and the granularity of the color definition. A typical 640x480 pix image using a
palette of 256 colors would require a file about 307 KB in size (640 • 480 bytes),
whereas a 1024x768 pix high-resolution 24-bit color image would result in a 2.36
MB file (1024 • 768 • 3 bytes).
To avoid sending files of this enormous size, a number of compression schemes
have been developed over time, notably Bitmap (BMP), Graphic Interchange
Format (GIF), and Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) file types. Not
all are equally suited to steganography, however.
GIF and 8-bit BMP files employ what is known as lossless compression, a
scheme that allows the software to exactly reconstruct the original image. JPEG,
on the other hand, uses lossy compression, which means that the expanded image
Page | 9
CHAPTER 3

is very nearly the same as the original but not an exact duplicate. Lossless
compression is much better suited to applications where the integrity of the
original information must be maintained, such as steganography. While JPEG can
be used for stego applications, it is more common to embed data in GIF or BMP
files.
The simplest approach to hiding data within an image file is called Least
Significant Bit (LSB) insertion. In this method, we can take the binary
representation of the hidden_data and overwrite the LSB of each byte within the
cover_image. If we are using 24-bit color, the amount of change will be minimal
and indiscernible to the human eye. As an example, suppose that we have three
adjacent pixels (nine bytes) with the following RGB encoding:
10010101 00001101 11001001
10010110 00001111 11001010
10011111 00010000 11001011
Now suppose we want to "hide" the following 9 bits of data (the hidden data
is usually compressed prior to being hidden): 101101101. If we overlay these 9 bits
over the LSB of the 9 bytes above, we get the following (where bits in bold have
been changed):
10010101 00001100 11001001
10010111 00001110 11001011
10011111 00010000 11001011
Note that we have successfully hidden 9 bits but at a cost of only changing
4, or roughly 50%, of the LSBs.
A 640x480 pixel image, the size of a small computer monitor, can hold over
400,000 characters. That's a whole novel hidden in one modest photo! This poject
involves following formats of images:

ANALYSIS OF DIGITAL AUDIO
Digital audio differs from traditional analog sound in that it is a discrete
rather than continuous signal. A discrete signal is created by sampling a continuous
analog signal at a specified rate. For example, the standard sampling rate for CD
digital audio is about 44kHz. The following figure illustrates a continuous analog
sound wave being sampled to produce digital audio. Note the sinusoidal nature of a
sound wave.
We emphasize the discrete nature of a digital signal in the diagram.
However, standard sampling rates are usually set at a level where the resultant
digital signal is visually indistinguishable from the original analog signal.
Digital audio is stored on a computer as a sequence of 0's and 1's. With
the right tools, it is possible to change the individual bits that make up a digital
audio file. Such precise control allows changes to be made to the binary sequence
that are not discernible to the human ear. The secret message is embedded by
slightly altering the binary sequence of a sound file.
The key innovation in recent years was to choose an innocent looking cover
that contains plenty of random information, called white noise. You can hear white
noise as a the nearly silent hiss of a blank tape playing. The secret message
replaces the white noise, and if done properly it will appear to be as random as the
noise was. Thus the basic design principle of steganographic systems is
“replacing high entropy noise with a high entropy secret transmission” .

ALGORITHMS
ENCODING
Least significant bit (LSB) coding is the simplest way to embed information in a
digital Image or Audio file. By substituting the least significant bit of each
sampling point in Audio and each pixel in Image with a binary message, LSB
coding allows for a large amount of data to be encoded.
The following diagram illustrates how the message 'HEY' is encoded in a
16-bit CD quality sample using the LSB method:
In LSB coding, the ideal data transmission rate is 1 kbps per 1 kHZ.

CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK
Steganography is a really interesting subject and outside of the mainstream
cryptography and system administration that most of us deal with day after day.
“You never know if a message is hidden”, this is the dilemma that empowers
steganography. As more emphasis is placed on the areas of copyright protection,
privacy protection, and surveillance, we believe that steganography will continue
to grow in importance as a protection mechanism.
This project deals with Steganography in Image and Audio files using
Least Significant Bit (LSB) coding. This project can uplifted by
considering following measures:
 A more sophisticated approach can be implemented by using a
pseudo-random number generator to spread the message over
the sound file in a random manner.
 This project can be extended by using other media files like video and
other complex formats of audio and image.
