“…Ganeshkumar [16] have proposed a steganographic technique to transmit concealed messages in multilanguage or combination of languages, which can be represented in Unicode. Use of inter-character spac-ing technique was proposed as the steganographic technique and a prototype implementation had been done with Rich Text Format (RTF) documents.…”

“…The method used is converting the message into irrelevant binary stream and then encoding with part-of-speech and by creating meaningful sentences starting with a suitable word belonging to the mapped part-ofspeech. Recently, Ganesh Kumar et al [16] proposed a steganography method on multiple language or combination of languages with the help of UNICODE. Inspired from these researches, we have proposed a linguistic steganography in Malayalam text.…”

Recent researches regarding information hiding is mostly concentrating on Linguistic steganography. The Steganography is the art and science of hiding a message inside another message without drawing any suspicion to the others so that the message can only be detected by its intended recipient. Now days, concentration is made on local language encryption based steganography to provide high security for the secret information sharing. In this paper, a method to steganography is proposed with an Indian local language, Malayalam. The proposed method consists of a custom Unicode based technique with embedding based on indexing, i.e. the original message is encoded to a Malayalam text with custom UNICODE values generated for the Malayalam text. After that an embedding algorithm will be designed to mix the encoded original message with the Malayalam text. The experimental study was done to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed approach. The comparison study of the proposed method against an existing method revealed that, the proposed steganography methods is more precise in the encoding process and balanced in the decoding process. The proposed method achieved a precision rate of 0.95 and decoding rate of 0.81.

“…Steganography is an ancient art of embedding private messages in seemingly innocuous text in a way that prevents the detection of the secret messages by a third party [8]. The main advantage of steganography compared to cryptography is that a third party could not suspect the presence of a hidden message; therefore, it would not draw any unnecessary attention [9].…”
