LW-AES VS: Lifting Wavelet –Advance Encryption Standard Video Steganography

Abstract

Now a day, the digital multimedia communication is widely adopted in daily life scenario. In various fields, the sensitive information is also transmitted and received through these types of communication. Hence, providing the security to these applications is a challenging task. Recently, watermarking, cryptography and steganography techniques have gained attraction for securing the multimedia data. Steganography has several advantages and widely adopted for text, audio and video communication. In this work we focus on the video steganography and presented a novel technique using Lifting wavelet transform. To improve the security of the secret data, we use AES (Advance Encryption Standards) to encrypt the data before embedding. The proposed approach is called as LW-AES VS (Lifting wavelet –Advance encryption standard video steganography). The proposed approach is implemented using MATLAB tool. The experimental study is carried out on open source research video dataset. The performance of proposed approach is compared with existing techniques in terms of PSNR, MSE and correlation which shows performance improvement using proposed mode.
