ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a steganalysis technique for both grayscale and color images. It uses the feature vectors derived from gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) in spatial domain, which is sensitive to data embedding process. This GLCM matrix is derived from an image. Several combinations of diagonal elements of GLCM are considered as features. There is difference between the features of stego and non-stego images and this characteristic is used for steganalysis. Distance measures like Absolute distance, Euclidean distance and Normalized Euclidean distance are used for classification. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing steganalysis techniques in attacking LSB steganographic schemes applied to spatial domain.
