There are number of ways and techniques that could be applied on and hence worth data could be kept secured [2]. The only disadvantage can be maintaining this privacy is quite expensive. A much easier way can be using of Steganography technique to hide this useful information inside any other source and then transferring it upon the internet. The other source can be text, audio, or even images [9]. In this paper we have focused upon the use of images for the steganography technique.
