Abstract :
Communication is the backbone of any enterprise. Communication, without exchange of data, is unimaginable. Security measures must be incorporated into computer systems during transmission of data whenever they are potential targets for malicious or mischievous attacks. This is especially for systems those handle financial transactions or confidential, classified or other information whose secrecy and integrity are critical. This paper proposes an Enhanced form of LSB based Steganography which embeds data in only 2–3–3 LSBs of red, green, blue components respectively of each pixel. This helps to achieve better capacity and immunity to suspicion. In addition, it provides means for secure data transmission using Data Encryption Standard algorithm. Hereby, important files carrying confidential information can be stored in the server in an encrypted form. Access to these files is limited to certain authorized people only. Transmission also takes place in an encrypted form so that no intruder can get any useful information from the original file during transit. Further, before trying to access important files, the user has to login to the system using a valid username and password, which is allotted to him by the system administrator.
