Summary: | Sharing and exchanging data over networks is often insecure, especially if the data is secret and important. Steganography is key research fields in information hiding, focusing on invisible communication and digital steganography, which offers private, secure communication through multimedia carriers. In this paper, propose a new steganography approach for hiding data in digital images using Pelican Optimization Algorithm (POA) and Least Significant Bit (LSB). The digital image was first divided into (4*4) blocks, then determined the best blocks for data hiding using POA, after that used LSB for data hiding. The results (MSE and PSNR are 0.7838 and 49.1743 respectively) are good when compared with related works and show good image quality. |
