Abstract

In this work a three-layer password protection approach is proposed by utilizing Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) and Reversible Data Hiding (RDH). RDH is a sort of data concealing approach whereby the host image can be recuperated precisely. The proposed approach was implemented and evaluated by considering various images. Results have been presented by calculating Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Rate. Obtained experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
