Analyzing the performance of integers-based text steganography prototype

Information security is the technique of preventing digital data from being accessed by unauthorized parties, being corrupted, or being stolen at any point in its lifecycle. Information security can be divided into two categories; Cryptography and Information Hiding. There are two types of information hiding, which are watermarking and steganography. This research is focusing on steganography, which is a technique that involves encrypting data inside multimedia files, sometimes known as cover files, to hide the existence of sensitive information. The hidden information can only be accessed and retrieved by the intended receiver, who is aware that it is included in the cover file. Within a range of multimedia files, including music, video, and photos, the steganography approach can be applied. The objective of this research is to develop a text steganography based on integers. It is also to identify the amount of hidden space when using a text cover file. Other than that, the performance of the developed text steganography prototype will be evaluated by the end of the research.
