Abstract
Linguistic steganography detection aims at distinguishing between normal text and stego-text. In this paper, based on homomorphic cryptosystem, we propose an efficient secure protocol for linguistic steganography detection. The protocol involves a vendor holding a private detector of linguistic steganography and a user in possession of some private text documents consisting of stego-text and normal text. By cooperatively performing the secure two-party protocol, the user can securely obtain the detection results of his private documents returned by the vendor’s remote detector while both vendor and user learn nothing about the privacy of each other. It is shown the proposed protocol is still secure against probe attack. Experiment result and theoretical analysis confirm the efficiency, correctness, security, computation complexity and communication overheads of our scheme.
