Abstract: With immense use of the internet in today’s highly technological age, data security has gained tremendous importance. Securing sensitive information from unauthorised users and attacks has resulted in a number of data security measures like cryptography and steganography being implemented on a large scale. Steganography is a method of embedding sensitive data in an image normally called a cover-image to generate a stego-image. It becomes difficult to detect the data hidden in a stego-image unless the attacker is aware of the existence of the data. In recent years many steganography techniques have been proposed and implemented. This paper gives a brief overview of some of the works related to steganography. This paper also introduces a technique of steganography using hybrid cryptography and Bit Plane Complexity Segmentation (BPCS) method.
