steganography and cryptography. The main advantage of steganography algorithm is because of its simple security mechanism. There are several steganography techniques used for hiding data such as batch steganography, permutation steganography, least significant bits (LSB), bit-plane complexity segmentation (BPCS) and chaos based spread spectrum image steganography (CSSIS)[9].
In 2013, Akanksha Kaushal persents a comparative study of image steganography in spatial domain & frequency domain. LSB techniques in a spatial domain have a high payload capacity & give good performance results but they often fail to prevent statistical attack & are thus easily detected & if the presence of hidden information is revealed or even suspected the purpose of steganography is partly defected therefore it is recommended to use the promising frequency domain techniques for steganography using DCT, DFT [7]
In Feb 2012 Hardik Patel, Preeti Dave, mentions Steganography Technique Based on DCT Coefficients in which the image is hided in cover image by replacing least significant bit of cover image with

The file format is now supported across multiple file systems and operating systems, but is being used less and less often. A key reason for this is the large file size, resulting from poor compression and verbose file format. This is, however, an advantage for hiding data without raising suspicion. To understand how bitmap images can be used to conceal data, the file format must first be explained. A bitmap file can be broken into two main blocks, the header and the data. The header, which consists of 54 bytes, can be broken into two sub-blocks. These are identified as the Bitmap Header, and the bitmap information. Images which are less than 16 bits have an additional sub block within the header labeled the color
This ultimately results is a subsequent communication which requires the holder to disclose those passwords or taking on an additional task of tracking the passwords. In both the cases, the level of work is expanded and the police investigator has to take on additional tasks then he was initially required to. This while increasing the cost of investigation also increases the time taken in investigation. Therefore while identifying the property, or the hardware of the computer, an inclusion needs to be made in relation to the passwords that may be protecting that hardware. Similarly for the data demanded in the digital format the investigator, would have to highlight that mere data in digital format is not required, but also the passwords or the code's which restrict access to that data are also required.
3.4 Functional Requirements • The system should process the input given by the user only if it is an image file (JPG, PNG etc.) • System shall show the error message to the user when the input given is not in the required format. • System should detect characters present in the image. • System should retrieve characters present in the image and display them to the user.
Ever since data is in encrypted format, its probably difficult for attacker to decode it ; but this will ultimately lead to data owner to suffer in one or the other way. 6. In order to solve this problem metadata is stored for each server content into proxy server. 7. Suppose size of data stored in server 1 is 2GB and similarly size of data stored in server2 is 2 GB.
This is done by calculating the hash value of the image, both before and after the image is
ASSIGNMENT # 3 Hashing Hashing is the renovation of a thread of characters addicted to a more often than not shorter fixed-length value or answers that stand for the innovative string. Uses of Hashes: If we discuss about the uses of hashing so we see many examples relevant to Hashing, some we described here in which alphabetical listing and retrieve substance in a database because the reason is that it is more rapidly to discover the substance with the help of hashed key HK then to discover. It using the innovative value it is also used in encryption algorithms.
Espionage (spying) during the Revolutionary War Espionage was a very interesting part of the Revolutionary War. Espionage was used on both sides. Espionage was important because without it they wouldn’t always be prepared.
With the introduction of new technology in recent years, the government can discreetly capture evidence from electronic files,
The composition of the image is observable by directions of lines throughout the image. There are a few diagonal lines in the image that give the viewer perspective
Fingerprinting is method based on the uniqueness of the skin pattern - that is, each person has a completely individual pattern of papillary lines. These patterns do not change throughout life and have the property of recovering from damage to the skin in its previous form. On the one hand, this method almost completely eliminates the mistake, and on the other hand it is very cheap and easy to use (in contrast the method of identification of a person by DNA). Fingerprinting allows: 1) to identify the person who left the prints, according to the general and particular features of the papillary pattern displayed on them; 2) to exclude individual from among those who have touched the object; 3) to narrow the group of individuals suspected of the particular crime (for instance, provided that the imprint shows traces of a scar, a burn, a wart or some other distinctive feature).
Student Name: Keshab Rawal Student ID: 77171807 Word Count: Title: The rise of anti-forensics: The rise of anti-forensics: Tables of contents: • Overview • Introduction • History • Categories/Tools of anti-forensics • Conclusion • Future Work Overview: Computer forensics is an active topic of research, with areas of study including wireless forensics, network security and cyber investigations. The goal of the computer forensics is to provide information about how the crime happened, why and who is involved in the crime in any legal proceeding by using the computer forensic tools.
“Once you’ve lost your privacy, you realize you’ve lost an extremely valuable thing” - Billy Graham. “Invasion of privacy is a legal term. It is used to describe a circumstance where an individual or organization knowingly intrudes upon a person. The intrusion occurs when the person has a reasonable expectation of privacy, such as in a bathroom or locker room”(Winston). There are many factors that help with the loss of privacy these days.
If I tell you a secret would you keep it to yourself or would you tell someone else? Confidentiality is the act of keeping information you are told secret. This means that the doctors are told information in private, so they need to keep the information confidential. The opposition has two sides: they say that there shouldn't be confidentiality and others say that they shouldn't be able to tell anyone in any situation. It is the legal duty of medical professionals to keep the information they are told confidential, however it is ethical in some situations where the information can be shared if necessary.
The following section will consider advantages and limitation of the first two mentioned types of digital forensics: Traditional (dead) and Live computer forensics. TRADITIONAL (DEAD) VS LIVE DIGITAL FORENSICS Traditional (Dead) Forensics In order forensic acquisition to be more reliable it must be performed on computers that have been powered off. This type of forensics is known as ‘traditional’ or 'dead ' forensic acquisition. The whole process of dead acquisition, including search and seizure flowchart and acquisition of digital evidence flowchart is shown on Figure 2 and Figure 3 respectively.
Computer forensics is also commonly referred as “cyber-forensics or digital forensics” by various individuals, authors of books and also information security professionals. The goal of
In second language learning, using visual aids is a necessity teaching strategy in both English as Second Language (ESL) classroom and English as Foreign Language (EFL) classroom (Allen, Kate & Marquez, 2011). They believed that using visual aids in the process of teaching a foreign language can strengthen what learners have learned and increase their interest. In their article, they proposed the positive impact of using visuals and they concluded that teachers should become aware of the strategies in which they can use visual aids and use them purposefully in the classroom to enhance students’ learning. Visual aids can be defined as using objects, drawings, charts, photographs, videos, multimedia presentation, etc.
