AbstractUsing steganography for data hiding is becoming a main subject to ensure both information security and picture quality. Traditional steganography algorithms usually convert secret information into a binary string and embed it in the pixel data of the cover image. In order to ensure the information security as well as convenient transmission, this work studies the steganography algorithm of embedding the QR code containing secret information into the cover image, based on the JSteg algorithm. Secret messages with different sizes have been tested by many cover images and standard parameters have adopted to verify the efficiency. According to the experimental results, all the PSNR in a value that is greater than 47.6 dB. The proposed method has high security and more imperceptibility.
