Abstract

Blind Steganalysis attempts to detect steganographic data without prior knowledge of either the embedding algorithm or the ‘cover’ image. This paper proposes new features for JPEG blind steganalysis using a combination of Huffman Bit Code Length (HBCL) Statistics and File size to Resolution ratio (FR Index); the Huffman Bit File Index Resolution (HUBFIRE) algorithm proposed uses these functionals to build the classifier using a multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM). JPEG images spanning a wide range of resolutions are used to create a ‘stego-image’ database employing three embedding schemes – the advanced Least Significant Bit encoding technique, that embeds in the spatial domain, a transform-domain embedding scheme: JPEG Hide-and-Seek and Model Based Steganography which employs an adaptive embedding technique. This work employs a multi-class SVM over the proposed ‘HUBFIRE’ algorithm for statistical steganalysis, which is not yet explored by steganalysts. Experiments conducted prove the model’s accuracy over a wide range of payloads and embedding schemes.
