The field of science, which enables the transmission of private data in multimedia environments such as display, audio and video, is called steganography. The widespread use of the internet in our daily lives has brought about the problem of transmitting confidential information. Hence, the need for steganography science has also increased. In this study, a labyrinth is produced in the size of the environment in which the data can hide with the help of a private key. Color images with 24-bit depth were used as data hiding environment in different measures and different formats. For the production of maze, the Depth First Search algorithm, which ensures both the creation of the maze and the finding of solution path together with this, was utilized. It is made the information hide inside the pixels on the image, corresponding to the coordinates of the solution path obtained from the maze. The Lowest Bit Insertion method was used to hide information. In order to make the proposed method more robust, the data, which will be hidden before the data hiding process was encrypted with the AES encryption algorithm. This makes it difficult for third parties to obtain confidential data. The proposed method was tested with detailed security analysis and it was observed that data hiding / data extraction processes were successful.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
