A Hybrid Model for Secure Data Transfer in Audio Signals using HCNN and DD DWT

Abstract

Abstract-In today's world, there are a number of cryptographic and steganography techniques used in order to have secured data transfer between a sender and a receiver. In this paper a new hybrid approach that integrates the merits of cryptography and audio steganography is presented. First, the original message is encrypted using chaotic neural network and the resultant cipher text is embedded into a cover audio using Double Density Discrete Wavelet Transform (DD DWT). The resultant stego audio is transmitted to the receiver and the reverse process is done in order to get back the original plain text. The proposed method presents a Steganography scheme along with the cryptography scheme which enhances the security of the algorithm.

Neural Network-Based Cryptography: A Primary Study on the Performances and Techniques

“…It has the capability to perform multiplex calculation with simplicity. Because of its amazing ability to analyse information from complicated data, it could be used to discover patterns and detect trends that would be too hard for users or other computer systems to grasp on their own [13].…”
