TY - JOUR AU - Obeidat, Atef A. PY - 2017 TI - Arabic Text Steganography Using Unicode of Non-Joined to Right Side Letters JF - Journal of Computer Science VL - 13 IS - 6 DO - 10.3844/jcssp.2017.184.191 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/jcssp.2017.184.191 AB - Steganography is a technique for hiding data in media in a way that makes its existence hard to detect. Text files are a preferable format for use in steganography due to the small storage size of such files. This paper presents an Arabic text steganographic algorithm based on Unicode. The algorithm imposes a minimal change on connected letters without any change in size and shape. The experiment resulted in a high capacity rate ratio of about 180 bit/KB and low modification rate less than 90 letters/KB.
