Abstract
In recent years, the steganography of images has been greatly developed. In the existing image steganography algorithms, users cannot participate in the encryption process and cannot fully trust the steganography process. Therefore, this paper hopes to increase the importance of user roles in the steganography process so that it can control the hiding process. This paper is based on the classic F5 algorithm to improve, to achieve user participation, so that users can control the embedding position of secret information. At the same time, in response to the traditional methods of cracking the F5 algorithm and steganographic keys, chaos technology is incorporated on the basis of the original algorithm to jointly improve the overall security of the algorithm. This paper can effectively solve the problem of lack of user participation and security guarantee in existing steganography algorithms. This has important theoretical and practical significance for the application of steganography technology.
