Internet of Things: Securing Data Using Image Steganography

Internet of Things (IoT) is a common thing (object) in today's world, which serves as part of our routine life activities. Although it benefits the residential district in several ways, various challenges such as data confidentiality and privacy are created. As a matter of fact, the community is concerned what information may leak out via IoT. Therefore, the needs of a secure environment is vital in order to secure the transmitting data from it devices over the network. As a result, in this paper, a secure scheme is suggested on using image steganography as an alternative security mechanism in conjunction with a home server to secure the transmitted data from IP camera as the IoT device to the other devices, either in LAN or WAN networks.
