Abstract

Digital Steganography is a process of hiding confidential digital information into a file of any kind. Digital Information is a resource which holds a lot of value in the modern world. In this paper we propose Steganography with SMS alert which is an approach to send secure digital information over a network in a secure way. The proposed algorithm secures files and messages and targets enterprise level security to hide and deploy digital information without the risk of network attacks or data theft.
