ABSTRACT In modern electronic communication, ensuring security during transferring of data is crucial. Digital steganography is the technique that ensures the same, in which any secret data is hidden into the cover mediums such as images, audio or video files. Resistance to removal and invisibility of hidden data are the two important requirements of any steganographic system. This paper proposes a new approach to hide any secret data in images. Also, this paper proposes a new approach which hides an executable file in images. The executable files we have considered are Windows PE (Portable-Executable) files. Moreover from the experimental results, it is proven that the proposed approach is suitable for hiding all type of digital files including exe files. Also, comparing with the existing approaches, this approach shows better performance.
