Enhancing Medical Data Security via Combining Elliptic Curve Cryptography with 1-LSB and 2-LSB Image Steganography (original) (raw)
The paper proposed methods to protect secret information by encryption and hiding so as to conceal and protect medical data and records from being hacked . This is done through implementing two layers by using two method Elliptic curve cryptography and image steganography. First layer means first step encrypting the text through using ECC; then, the second layer is to hide the encrypted text inside the image by using 1-LSB and 2-LSB image steganography [25]. Selecting ECC, it constitutes an approach to cryptography of public key through relying on the algebraic structure of elliptic curves over finite fields, is considered as being a desired choice for being public key [13] [17]. Furthermore, it can be used in many type of media they use it in medical record system and in field such as X-Ray, CT scan, and MRI scan. Selecting Image Steganography, which is a technique to prevent the third person to have a look or detect easily the overlaying files, including the files that are encrypt...
