Secure Image Steganography using Multi-Directional LSB Scanning and Segmented Correlation Method

This paper proposes a steganographic method that would improve transfer security and allow user customizable options, with no size restrictions for the secret image being transferred. It compares the secret image with multiple directionally scanned Least Significant Bits of the cover image for similarity in varied length of segments. The result of the comparison will form the basis of generating the key. A varied comparison segment of 2, 4, 6, 8...
