Abstract

The bottleneck of digital image processing field narrows down to the memory consumption and the processing speed problems, which can be resolved by performing image processing in quantum state. In this Internet era, all the information is exchanged or transferred through the Web of things, which necessitates maintaining the security of transmitted data. A variety of techniques are available to perform secret communication. A quantum steganography scheme is introduced to conceal a quantum secret message or image into a quantum cover image. For embedding of secret data into the quantum cover, many algorithms like LSB Qubits, QUALPI are available. This paper thrashes out on the subject of secret data transmission using quantum image steganography.
