Preface
Transmitting data over a public network—for instance, the Internet—necessitates increasing the security of data communications, especially within the extremely sensitive category of file transfers. Steganography systems have been presented and established to offer security for these applications. Profoundly, the steganography objective is not only to obstruct the adversary from decrypting a hidden message, but also to divert an adversary from even suspecting the presence of concealed communications. It does not constitute cryptography; however, it improves security using its obscurity features. If an adversary’s suspicion is aroused while examining a document where steganography has been employed, the goal of the latter objective will be overpowered, irrespective of whether or not any plaintext is discovered. This book is comprised of five (5) chapters, and is prepared as follows: Chapter 1 presents an overview and the challenges in the fi
