Abstract

This paper discusses the different embedding strategies in multi-secret steganography. Each secret is related to one selected embedding procedure, which may depend or not on personal features or characteristics. Such multi-way embedding approach allows to reveal secrets independently of each other. Presented idea may be used in single-user system in which one person stores a number of secrets or in multi-user cloud or fog computing systems.
