摘要

Securing data transmission in a digital era is a difficult one due to the broad application of the Internet, personal computers, and mobile phones for communication. Traditional video steganography techniques sometimes fail to identify the best pixels for encoding hidden data, resulting in lowerquality and robustness. To solve this issue, this article proposes an innovative steganography technique that improves the security and quality of data hiding. The proposed method takes cover video and secret images as input. The Structural Similarity Index Measurement (SSIM) first collects key frames from the input video. The adaptive sailfish optimizer (ASFO) is then used to find the best regions within these keyframes to insert the secret data in. To improve security, the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is applied to the specified region, and the LL band is used for the hiding process. The secret image is encrypted by Adaptive elliptical curve cryptography (AECC) and transformed to binary bits, which then get embedded in the chosen band. This method leads to the construction of a stego-video. The extraction procedure is repeated using the same approach, which ensures secure and robust data transmission. Performance metrics, including PSNR, BER, NAE, TAF, and NC are analyzed to compare each method's efficacy.
