The science of communicating secret data using multimedia cover like audio, image, video files, etc. is called steganography. The technique steganography is used for hiding a secret data from unauthorized access or user. Steganography technique can be implemented using many different file formats, or in other words we can use different file formats as cover media but here we would talk about Digital Image-based Steganography for its obvious advantages. Also, we know that rapid and unimaginable developments in digital image processing methods make researcher work even more harder to achieve the ultimate objectives of steganography like robustness, security, resistance to different attacks, and payload capacity. The steganography method also confirms that the methodology or technique also increases the quality of the stego image keeping secure the secret data. The quality measures are PSNR and MSE. Through the following paper, we will study various states of art methods for steganography and compare the same so that it would be a great and ready reference material for the research scholars who are working on Digital Image Steganography.
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.
