There are many kinds of military images used in naval combat system because various sensors are operated. The military images are displayed, analysed and stored with analysed informations according to the tactical purpose on combat system. These images are used to target detection, analysis and classification. Thus the analysed information and images must be secured, the information hiding methods are the most eligible solutions to get secured informations and images. In this paper, the hybrid information hiding method based on the characteristics of the military images is proposed and the effectiveness is shown by experiments.

In this paper, we propose an error resilience video coder which uses a hybrid error concealment algorithm. Firstly, the algorithm uses the error concealment with data hiding. If the hiding information is lost, the motion vector of lost macroblock is computed with adaptive selection of adjacent motion vectors and OBMC (Overlapped Block Motion Compensation) is applied with this motion vector. We know our algorithm is more effective in case of continuous GOB. The results show more significant improvement than many temporal concealment methods such as MVRI (Motion Vector Rational Interpolation) or existing error concealment using data hiding.

In this paper, a new hybrid opto-digital multiple information hiding and real-time extracting system was suggested and implemented using a volume holographic optical correlator. The multiple information hiding system in which the multiple information can be hided in an arbitrary cover image was digitally implemented by using the combination of pseudo random sequence and Hadamard matrix. In addition, a real-time optical extraction system in which the hided multiple information in a cover image can be extracted in real-time was implemented by using a volume holographic optical correlator. In the VanderLugt-type holographic optical correlator used in this experiment, the multiful matched spatial filters corresponding each of the hided informations were recorded in a photorefractive crystal by using the moving window-based angular multiplexing scheme.

Since most of the information is transmitted through the network, eavesdropping and interception by a third party may occur. Appropriate measures are required for effective, secure and confidential communication in the network. Steganography is a technology that prevents third parties from detecting that confidential information is hidden in other media. Due to structural vulnerabilities, information protected by encryption and steganography techniques can be easily exposed to illegitimate groups. In order to improve the limitations of LSB where the simplicity and predictability of the hiding method exist, I propose a technique to improve the security of the message to be hidden based on PRNG and recursive function. To enhance security and confusion, XOR operation was performed on the result of selecting a random bit from the upper bits of the selected channel and the information transformed by the RS-box. PSNR and SSIM were used to confirm the performance of the proposed method. Compared to the reference values, the SSIM and PSNR of the proposed method were 0.9999 and 51.366, respectively, confirming that they were appropriate for hiding information.

In this paper we first propose a new cryptosystem based on our data hiding scheme (2,9,8) introduced in 2019 with high security, where encrypting and hiding are done at once, the ciphertext does not depend on the input image size as existing hybrid techniques of cryptography and steganography. We then exploit our automata approach presented in 2019 to design two algorithms for exact and approximate pattern matching on secret data encrypted by our cryptosystem. Theoretical analyses remark that these algorithms both have O(n) time complexity in the worst case, where for the approximate algorithm, we assume that it uses ⌈(1-ε)m)⌉ processors, where ε, m and n are the error of our string similarity measure and lengths of the pattern and secret data, respectively. In searchable encryption, our cryptosystem is used by users and our pattern matching algorithms are performed by cloud providers.

Steganography technology protects the existence of hidden information by embedding a secret message in a specific location on the cover medium. Security and resistance are strengthened by applying various hybrid methods based on encryption and steganography. In particular, techniques to increase chaos and randomness are needed to improve security. In fact, the case where the shuffling method is applied based on the discrete cosine transform(DCT) and the least significant bit(LSB) is an area that needs to be studied. I propose a new approach to hide the bit information of Hangul messages by integrating the selective shuffling method that can add the complexity of message hiding and applying the spatial domain technique to steganography. Inverse shuffling is applied when extracting messages. In this paper, the Hangul message to be inserted is decomposed into the choseong, jungseong and jongseong. It improves security and chaos by applying a selective shuffling process based on the corresponding information. The correlation coefficient and PSNR were used to confirm the performance of the proposed method. It was confirmed that the PSNR value of the proposed method was appropriate when compared with the reference value.

In the system security technology, the information hiding field is developed as technologies for embedding information, which are generally used as contents media. The proposed technique is a technical steganography technique which uses a technique of concealing certain information through physical / statistical change of signal values of contents. Recently, there have been various studies based on histogram shifting in reversible data concealment. In multi - peak histogram shifting, the capacity of data concealment gradually increased by applying multiple peak histogram method. In this paper, we analyze the effect of concealment in terms of adopting the histogram shift method including skipping. In addition, we propose multi - branch data concealment as a general method to improve concealment capacity. The above proposal has proved to be an example using mathematical expressions, and further improvement measures could be derived.

Information plays an important role in modern society. Most of the information is processed and moved in the digital space. In cyberspace, confidential communication based on resistance and security is fundamental. It is essential to protect the information sent and received over the network. However, information may be leaked and forged by unauthorized users. The effectiveness of the existing protection system decreases as an innovative technique is applied to identify the communication contents by a third party. Steganography is a technique for inserting secret information into a specific area of a medium. Stegganography and steganalysis techniques are at odds with each other. A new and sophisticatedly implemented system is needed to cope with the advanced steganalysis. To enhance step-by-step diffusion and irregularity, I propose a hybrid implementation technique of image steganography for Hangul messages based on layered encryption and variable ShiftRows. PSNR was calculated to measure the proposed steganography efficiency and performance. Compared to the basic LSB technique, it was shown that the diffusion and randomness can be increased even though the PSNR decreased by 1.45%.

As various users increase in a network environment, it is difficult to protect sensitive and confidential information transmitted and received from attackers. Concealing bitwise secret data in an image using the LSB technique can be very vulnerable to attack. To solve this problem, a hybrid method that combines encryption and information hiding is used. Therefore, an effective method for users to securely protect secret messages and implement secret communication is required. A new approach is needed to improve security and imperceptibility to ensure image quality. In this paper, I propose an LSB steganography technique that hides Hangul messages in a cover image based on MSB and LSB. At this time, after separating Hangul into chosung, jungsung and jongsung, the secret message is applied with Exclusive-OR or Exclusive-NOR operation depending on the selected MSB. In addition, the calculated secret data is hidden in the LSB n bits of the cover image converted by Fibonacci technique. PSNR was used to confirm the effectiveness of the applied results. It was confirmed 41.517(dB) which is suitable as an acceptable result.
