Since the Internet is a medium for transporting sensitive data, the privacy of the message transported has become a major concern. Image steganography has become a prominent tool for hiding data to ensure privacy during transfer. An efficient steganography system is essential to accomplish the best embedding capacity and maintain the other parameters at a satisfying level. Image encryption systems provide a secure and flexible system to maintain the privacy of image conversion and storage in the transmission system. Many existing image steganography methods can be attacked by various techniques, or do not support many image formats for embedding. To resolve these shortcomings, this study presents the Huffman Encoding with White Tailed Eagle Algorithm-based Image Steganography (HEWTEA-IS) technique, aiming to achieve secrecy with no compromise in image quality.
