In this paper a secret message/image transmission technique has been proposed through (2, 2) visual cryptographic share which is non-interpretable in general. A binary image is taken as cover image and authenticating message/image has been…
A visual cryptography scheme is a secret sharing scheme in which the secret information is an image and the shares are printed on transparencies, so that the secret image can be recovered by simply stacking the shares on top of each other.…
An Extended Visual Cryptography Scheme (EVCS) was proposed by Ateniese et al. [3] to protect a binary secret image with meaningful (innocent-looking) shares. This is implemented by concatenating an extended matrix to each basis matrix. The…
Visual cryptography aims to protect images against their possible illegitimate use. Thus, one can cipher, hash, or add watermarks for protecting copyright, among others. In this paper we provide a new solution to the problem of secret…
Disjunctive Hierarchical Secret Sharing (DHSS)} scheme is a type of secret sharing scheme in which the set of all participants is partitioned into disjoint subsets, and each subset is said to be a level with different degrees of trust and…
Secret sharing is a well-established cryptographic primitive for storing highly sensitive information like encryption keys for encoded data. It describes the problem of splitting a secret into different shares, without revealing any…
Two novel visual cryptography (VC) schemes are proposed by combining VC with single-pixel imaging (SPI) for the first time. It is pointed out that the overlapping of visual key images in VC is similar to the superposition of pixel…
Verifiable secret sharing (VSS) is designed to allow parties to collaborate to keep secrets. We describe here a method of fabricating false secret shares that appear to other parties to be legitimate, which can prevent assembly of the…
The secret sharing schemes are the important tools in cryptography that are used as building blocks in many secured protocols. It is a method used for distributing a secret among the participants in a manner that only the threshold number…
This paper presents a recursive computational multi-secret sharing technique that hides k-2 secrets of size b each into n shares of a single secret S of size b, such that any k of the n shares suffice to recreate the secret S as well as all…
A {k,n}-threshold scheme based on two-dimensional memory cellular automata is proposed to share images in a secret way. This method allows to encode an image into n shared images so that only qualified subsets of k or more shares can…
Secret sharing in user hierarchy represents a challenging area for research. Although a lot of work has already been done in this direc- tion, this paper presents a novel approach to share a secret among a hierarchy of users while…
Secret sharing schemes are widely used now a days in various applications, which need more security, trust and reliability. In secret sharing scheme, the secret is divided among the participants and only authorized set of participants can…
It has been observed that the contrast values for (2, 3) VSS scheme, (2, 4) VSS scheme, (3, 5) VSS scheme and (4, 5) VSS scheme claimed by Wu and Sun (2013) are found to be incorrect. Since the same values are cited and compared by many…
Threshold secret sharing schemes do not prevent any malicious behavior of the dealer or shareholders and so we need verifiable secret sharing, to detect and identify the cheaters, to achieve fair reconstruction of a secret. The problem of…
Preserving data confidentiality in clouds is a key issue. Secret Sharing, a cryptographic primitive for the distribution of a secret among a group of $n$ participants designed so that only subsets of shareholders of cardinality $0 < t \leq…
Image security for information has become increasingly critical as internet become more prevalent due to hacking and unauthorized access. To ensure the security of confidential image data, image encryption using visual cryptography plays a…
This paper presents a recursive secret sharing technique that distributes k-1 secrets of length b each into n shares such that each share is effectively of length (n/(k-1))*b and any k pieces suffice for reconstructing all the k-1 secrets.…
Multiview subspace clustering (MVSC) has attracted an increasing amount of attention in recent years. Most existing MVSC methods first collect complementary information from different views and consequently derive a consensus reconstruction…
Image steganography is a technique of hiding secret information inside another image, so that the secret is not visible to human eyes and can be recovered when needed. Most of the existing image steganography methods have low hiding…
