Abstract

This article provides an overview of steganography and its use for hiding images in other images. Steganography is a technique that allows users to hide information in plain sight, making it difficult for unauthorized parties to detect or access the information. Spatial domain steganography is a popular technique for hiding images within other images, where the least significant bits of the cover image are modified to embed the secret image. The article discusses the advantages of steganography and its use in various applications such as digital watermarking and secure communication. The article also provides an overview of the various techniques used for spatial domain steganography, and how these techniques can be implemented using programming languages such as Python. Finally, the article concludes by emphasizing the importance of using steganography responsibly and ethically.
