Abstract:
Nowadays, steganography plays a critical
role in Information Security. A number of
steganographic algorithms have been proposed
by focusing on this property of a steganographic
system. It is needed two bytes to hide single
Myanmar Unicode character in the stegographic
system. This paper presents a system to embed
Myanmar characters into the cover image by
applying Least Significant Bit (LSB) technique.
This system proposed a compression technique of
Myanmar characters. It can reduce the size of
single character into one byte before hiding it
into the cover image by applying the proposed
technique. So, it can compress the size of
message into half. It also provides another level
of protection over traditional LSB technique.
