Least Significant Bit , Steganography Modification, RGB Image ComponentAbstract
Image steganography is a method that involves composing hidden messages and embedding them into an image carrier. This ensures that only the sender and the receiver are know that the image contains a hidden message. This study refines the Least Significant Bit (LSB) method of image steganography by switching the least significant bit with the most significant bit and incorporating a hidden message bit in the process. The purpose of this study is to identify a new way to modify the approach of embedding messages from the least significant bit on Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) image components all the way up to the most significant bit.
