Quantum-Based Colour Image Steganography

This research delves into the realm of quantum steganography, where the concealment and encoding of secret messages within colored images are achieved through the ingenious integration of quantum gates and qubits. Using the Qiskit platform by IBM and Python, an innovative application was developed for the encoding and decoding of covert information. The study addresses the problem of bolstering data security in an era of advancing technology, where classical steganographic methods may become vulnerable to quantum threats. The approach leverages the unique quantum properties of qubits, their superposition, and entanglement, to ensure an unprecedented level of security. Key findings reveal the viability of quantum steganography is a powerful tool for secure data concealment and transmission. The research's significance lies in its potential to redefine data protection paradigms, safeguarding sensitive information in an increasingly interconnected and vulnerable digital landscape.
