Abstract

This paper focuses on the capability of image files as cover message to send the text files. The images are classified according to their compression technique either lossless or lossy compression. The measurements are identified in order to test their capability based on file size, color intensity level, integrity data, and the execution time. All the measurements are tested by using the developed tool called StegaMage. The result of the study is to suggest that BMP image is preferable than JPEG image.
