“…Some authors focused on passive techniques to detect forgery [101], or carving on specific file formats such as JPEG [102]. Other image forensics surveys analysed topics such as hyperspectral image [88], [103], image authentication [104], the affectation of noise in images [105] and image steganalysis [106]- [110]. Another set of surveys focus on the specific context of child abuse material and its detection through image and video analysis [111]- [114].…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, the research on image steganography mostly focuses on preserving secret information through the content of the image or adding redundancy information, while the research on information hiding from the image file storage structure has rarely been proposed [15][16][17][18]. Based on the storage structure of the image file, this paper reports a novel proposal of image steganography and the feasibility of this proposal is verified by experiments.…”

Steganography is a technology for transmitting secret messages in public channel by embedding secret information into a digital carrier. It has a wide range of applications in the Internet security thus has attracted great interests. Among all kinds of digital carriers, digital image has outstanding performance. To the best of our knowledge, the researches on image steganography mainly focus on the use of the feature of digital image in the spatial or frequency domain, while there are few researches on hiding information through the file format structure. Taking JPEG image standard as an example, this paper analyzes the file format structure as well as the compression procedure and reports a novel proposal of image steganography and forensics. The proposal uses the redundant channel between any marker segments in the JPEG format structure to embed the secret information. The validity of the proposal has been proved by experiments, and further study has shown that this proposal has no limitation on the hiding capacity and has good practicability.

“…In addition, there are reversibility, encryption, computational complexity and other requirements for better technology. Multimedia, archives, networks, Skype, medical videos, and DNA are some of the latest steganography patterns [108]. The author of [113] demonstrates the classification of steganography based on technical and non-technical steganography.…”

Cloud and Edge Computing-Based Computer Forensics: Challenges and Open Problems

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In recent years, there has been a dramatic change in attitude towards computers and the use of computer resources in general. Cloud and Edge computing have emerged as the most widely used technologies, including fog computing and the Internet of Things (IoT). There are several benefits in exploiting Cloud and Edge computing paradigms, such as lower costs and higher efficiency. It provides data computation and storage where data are processed, enables better data control, faster understanding and actions, and continuous operation. However, though these benefits seem to be appealing, their effects on computer forensics are somewhat undesirable. The complexity of the Cloud and Edge environments and their key features present many technical challenges from multiple stakeholders. This paper seeks to establish an in-depth understanding of the impact of Cloud and Edge computing-based environmental factors. Software and hardware tools used in the digital forensic process, forensic methods for handling tampered sound files, hidden files, image files, or images with steganography, etc. The technical/legal challenges and the open design problems (such as distributed maintenance, multitasking and practicality) highlight the various challenges for the digital forensics process.
