Hiding A Text Inside a WAV Audio File By Using The Maze Method

Abstract

The appearance of the internet and the spread of multimedia and interanet made difficult the transmission of data and information in a normal way without being pirated or illegally accessed and its subsequent deformation. So, there was a need to hide these data in different ways that are collectively known as "Steganography". This paper uses some Steganography algorithms to encode a text message and then hiding this encoded message inside a certain map hidden inside a maze of data. The resulting data from encoding are then hidden inside a WAV audio file. This makes it very difficult to identify this text message among hundreds of probabilities . The hiding process was successful .The sound kept clear and its volume suffers no change .Moreover , the decoding process requires nothing other than the audio file to put the text message back to its correct form.
