Abstract

Steganography is method of data hiding behind multimedia file such as text, image, audio and video. For enhancing the security of data hiding and transmission over network, this paper proposed system which uses genetic algorithm cross-over concept along with Visual Cryptography. The Secret image is converted into two shares by using any visual secret sharing scheme then these shares are hidden in LSB of cover image. Genetic Algorithm is used to shuffle pixel location of image so that detection of secret information become complex. Pixel locations are shuffled using cross-over algorithm. Visual cryptography is kind of encryption technique which divide secret image into multiple shares to ensure improved security and reliability.
