Abstract

Protecting information on various communication media is considered an essential requirement in the present information transmission technology. So, there is a continuous search around different modern techniques that may be used to protect the data from the attackers. Steganography is one of those techniques that can be used to maintain the copyright by employing it to cover the publisher logo image inside the video frames. Nowadays, most of the popular known of the Video-Steganography methods become a conventional technique to the attacker, so there is a requirement for a modern and smart strategy to protect the copyright of the digital video file. Where this proposed system goal to create a hybrid system that combines the properties of Cryptography and Steganography work to protect the copyright hidden data from different attack types with maintaining of characteristics of the original video (quality and resolution). In this article, a modern Video-Steganography method is presented by employing the benefits of TC (Turbo code) to encrypt the pixels of logo image and Least two Significant Bit Technique procedure to embed the encryption pixels inside the frames of the video file. The insertion is performed in the frequency domain by applying the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)on the video frames. The examination of the suggested architecture is done by terms of Structural Similarity Index, MSE (mean squared error), and PSNR (peak signal-to-noise ratio) by comparing between an original and extracted logo as well as between original and Steganographic video (averaged overall digital frames in the video). The simulation results show that this method proved high security, robustness, capacity and produces a substantial performance enhancement over the present known ways with fewer distortions in the quality of the video
