Abstract
In our daily life in this digital era, information has become essential. Along with the development of technology and the importance of information, digital crimes such as theft of information also develop. One way to protect information is with steganography. Steganography is a technique to insert secret data or secret messages into an image. In this paper, we will modify the Least Significant Bit method so that the secret message will only be entered into one color bit and combine our proposed Least Significant Bit method with cryptography to improve the security and quality of the holding image. The cryptography technique that we will use is fernet symmetric encryption. In this study, we use the Python programming language. From the results of our research, the quality of the holding image increases for the better. We can express this based on the average PSNR value for each image which increases by 0.1% and decreases from the average MSE value, 2.1%. By implementing our proposed method we are able to improve security and imperceptibility proved by the RGB histogram which is very similar to the original images RGB histogram.
