A Novel Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) and Chaotic Encryption Based Image Steganography Technique

Information sharing through internet has becoming challenge due to high-risk factor of attacks to the information being transferred. In this paper, a novel image-encryption edge based Image steganography technique is proposed. The proposed algorithm uses logistic map for encrypting the information prior to transmission. Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) edge operator is used to find edge areas of the colored-cover-image. Simulation analysis demonstrates that the proposed algorithm has a good amount of payload along with better results of security analysis. The proposed scheme is compared with the existing-methods.
