The pixel-value differencing (PVD) steganography can embed a large amount of secret bits into a still image with high imperceptibility as it makes use of the characteristics of human vision sensitivity. However, a loophole exists in the PVD method. Unusual steps in the histogram of pixel differences reveal the presence of a secret message. An analyst can even estimate the length of hidden bits from the histogram. To enhance security, a modified scheme is proposed which avoids occurrence of the above-mentioned steps in the pixel difference histogram while preserving the advantage of low visual distortion of the PVD. The histogram-based steganalysis is therefore defeated.
