Message Security Using Rivest-Shamir-Adleman Cryptography and Least Significant Bit Steganography with Video Platform

Abstract

All over the world, information technology has developed into a critical communication medium. One of them is digital messaging. We can connect and share information in real-time using digital messages. Without us knowing it, advances in message delivery are not only followed by kindness. Message security threats are also growing. Many unauthorized parties try to intercept critical information sent for the benefit of certain parties. As a countermeasure, various message security techniques exist to protect the messages we send. One of them is cryptography and steganography. Cryptography is useful for converting our messages into coded text so that unauthorized parties cannot read them. Meanwhile, steganography is useful for hiding our encrypted messages into several media, such as videos. This research will convert messages into ciphertext using the Rivest-Shamir-Adleman method and then insert them into video media using the Least Significant Bit method. There are four types of messages tested with different sizes. All messages will be encrypted and embedding using the Python programming language. Then the video will be tested using the MSE, PSNR, and Histogram methods. So we get a value that shows which message gets the best results. So that the message sent is more guaranteed authenticity and reduces the possibility of message leakage.
