Effective Revisable Data Hiding in Encrypted Image for Protection of Image Content

Abstract

In this article, we propose a reversible method for hiding data, in which the original image and hidden data can be restored on the receiving side. The owner encrypts the original image using an encryption key to protect the privacy of the image content. Each block of encrypted image is added to the little secret by Hider data using the key data hiding. Data hiding process causes only a small change in each partial pixel flip block, which improves decoded image visual quality. The image can be easily decoded receiver using the key, data encryption key to hide the adaptive soft characteristic of the evaluation function along the direction of the isophote, the secret data can be extracted from a decoded image and original image recovery can be restored more successfully.
