Abstract: With the increase of digital transactions, providing security for the network and its devices is a big challenge today. Sensitive information that has more value in the network is to be protected from unauthorized users in accessing it. Various algorithms are being developed to provide security services for the data. In this paper security is provided by using pixel value differencing technique. Valuable data is embedded in each of the component of color like red, blue and green of a pixel in a color image. In addition to that in providing additional security pixel value has been updated conditionally, that would be more complex to trace the incremented or decremented bits in a pixel of the stegoimage. From this experiment the proposed method provides better visual quality of stego image. This proposed algorithm is suitable for small business applications where small size data is important and threats are more common.
Keywords: Security services, pixel, image, pixel value difference, Encryption, Decryption.
