Abstract

In this contribution we present a work of text steganography. Maintain the security of the secret information has been a great challenge in our day to day life. Sender can send messages habitually through a communication channel like Internet, draws the attention of third parties, hackers and crackers, perhaps causing attempts to break and expose the unusual messages. Steganography is a talented province which is used for secured data transmission over any public media. Extensive amount of research work has been established by different researchers on steganography. In this paper, a text steganography procedure has been designed with the help of a Regional language of India i.e. Gujarati language. Here the quantum approach also incorporates for increasing the security level. A Revised SSCE code (SSCE - Secret Steganography Code for Embedding) has been implemented in this work to upgrade the level of security. Text steganography together with Revised SSCE code & quantum approach based on the use of two specific and two special characters in Gujarati language and mapping technique of quantum gate truth table have been used.
