Multiple Image Based Dual Steganography Using Arnold Transform and Block Code Encoding

Security plays a crucial role in the field of Social media network. Securing the data become one among the largest challenges in the present scenario. Whenever we expect concerning the cyber security, the primary issue that involves our mind is ‘cyber crimes' that are increasing vastly day by day. Embedding secret message into the image (Steganography) is associated with art and science of secure data communication wherever the key information or confidential information is hidden in host file. It's employed incompletely different helpful applications like secure electronic communication, health care and military. Confidential information's are unremarkably keep in digital media and transmitted via network cause of rapid growth of internet. In this paper, steganography techniques which might be used to safeguard the information from intruders. Here, Steganographic technique is used to hide multiple secret images into a single 24-bit cover image using Least Significant Bit (LSB) and dual steganography method. Multiple secret images are scrambled and encoded before hiding into cover image using Arnold Transform and Block Code Encoding. The Proposed technique is Block Code Encoding to convert Secret message to binary and bit pairs to form safer information. The main goals of proposed work offers security and high limit based steganography plan of concealing a massive size secret image into a bit size cover image, to enhance security using dual steganography, image quality and to reduce error.
