Encryption of the Data/Image Maintenance and Backup of the Patients Personal Health Information Using Image Steganography

Abstract

Healthcare professionals use video records of a patient. All this data is stored on the healthcare cloud, which provides services like maintenance and backup of the patients Personal Health Information (PHI), for any further studies or legal procedures. The healthcare cloud is constantly under the threat of data theft attacks which are the most serious forms of attacks. Hence the main goal of system is to make these data theft attacks difficult for the attackers. Steganogrphy is the art of hiding the fact where communication is taking place, by hiding information in other information. Steganography becomes more important as more people join the cyberspace revolution. In contrast to cryptography, it is not to keep others from knowing the hidden information but it is to keep others from thinking that the information even exists. Security is provided by encrypting the data that is sent in the image and again encrypting the image that carries the information using AES algorithm. This encryption of the data and image thus provides double security.
