Abstract

The paper proposes a virtual hard drive which hides the encrypted data through the creation of a device driver in Windows. The security is implemented in a two-step process. First, the driver encrypts the data being written to the drive with the AES encryption algorithm. Secondly, it uses steganography to hide the encrypted data in an audio file by changing the least 4 significant bit of 16-bit sampled audio signal. The WAV files are used as the carrier to improve the I/O performance instead of the bit-map image files. PESQ test verifies that the embedded data is nearly undetectable by the human ear.
