Steganography is the practice of hiding secret information within a non-secret medium such as an image, audio, or video file. This technique ensures that the existence of the hidden information is concealed, making it an effective method for secure communication.
- Confidential communication: Steganography allows for the secure transmission of sensitive data without arousing suspicion.
- Digital watermarking: Used in copyright protection to embed watermarks in digital media.
- Authentication: Ensures the authenticity and integrity of the information.
- Data protection: Protects data from unauthorized access and tampering.
