Abstract
The technological advancements in the information sharing and the development of many techniques to make the information conveyance easy necessitate a protection methodology that could prevent the personal information that is transmitted from being hacked. Some of the protection methods that have emerged are the cryptography, steganography, watermarking, digital signature etc. As steganography is a popular method of transmitting the covered secret information in order to avoid hacking and the misuse due to its major attributes such as the security, capacity and the robustness. This paper puts forward cryptography incorporated steganography (CICS) to provide a highly secure steganography algorithm for the files of the multiple formats, The performance analysis of the method and the measurement of the parameters such as the PSNR and the SSIM are done to ensure the efficiency of the proffered method.
