An Efficient Neural Network Based Algorithm for Detecting Steganography Content in Corporate Mails: A Web Based Steganalysis
Steganography refers to information or file that has been
concealed inside a digital media. Steganalysis is used to detect
and/or estimate potentially hidden information from observed
data with a little or no knowledge about the steganography
algorithm and its parameters. Current trend in steganalysis
seems to suggest two extreme approaches (a) little or no
statistical assumption about the image under investigation.
Statistics are learnt using a large database of training image and
(b) a parametric model is assumed for the image and its
statistics are computed for steganalysis detection. This research
developed a new hybrid approach which comprises of neural
network and S-DES encryption scheme which is used to detect
the stego content in corporate mails. In this research work we
implemented the combination of Compression, Encryption,
Steganography to enhance the security of the data sent and
Steganalysis methods which will detect the stego content in
corporate emails. This method will be used to enhance the
security measures of corporate mails.
