Advance Security for Visual Dataset Using Visual Cryptography and Steganography

Information Security

In the current technology world, data transmission of various multimedia like sensitive images, video, text is very important and security is major concern in the fields of medical, commercial and military fields. Security is very important, as illegal users may hack the sensitive data. Currently, many techniques are available for Visual data Security.In this proposed system, describes an approach to hide valuable secret information inside the different file formats without losing it by using Steganography and Visual Cryptography techniques.The main objective is to never leave anyone to know that information is already hidden in the file.Visual Cryptography is a special kind of cryptographic scheme where the decryption of the encrypted secret is done by the human vision and not by complex mathematical calculations. Visual Cryptography deals with any secrets such as printed or pictures, etc. These secrets are fed into the system in a digital (image) form. The digital form of the secrets is then divided into different parts based on the pixel of the digital secret. These parts are called shares. The shares are then overlapped correctly to visualize the secret.
