Survey of Multiple Information Hiding Techniques using Visual Cryptography
Keywords:
Visual Cryptography, Secret Sharing Scheme, Random Grids, Pixel expansion, Multiple information HidingAbstract
Information now a day‟s seems to have become abundant and the secure transmission and visualization of it has been a challenge. The major security concerns are of Authentication, Confidentiality and Data Integrity. In regard to this, the various security methodologies have been introduced and Cryptography is one of the schemes where the information is transferred in the disguise form and only authentic user can reveal the exact information. Various Cryptographic techniques has played a very vital role in this regard, among which Visual Cryptographic System(VCS) is one of such kind where the secret data (image, text etc) is encoded into multiple images and decoded using Human Visual System(HVS) without having to tedious calculations and sound knowledge of Cryptography. VC is one of such methodology where the secret information is bifurcated into many disguise images and on super imposing these images, the original secret information is revealed, using Human Visual System(HVS) unlike the traditional cryptography where lot of complex mathematical and time consuming calculation are to be performed. In this paper study of various VC techniques has been done based on number of shares, number of secret messages and types of shares in the cases of Grayscale Image.
