Abstract
Thanks to the emergence and spread of the internet, email is one of the
main and fastest communication tools in both daily and business life. The
amount and the importance of data exchanged in emailing have been continuously
increasing. This brings the security-related issues. To be able to protect the
security of the information, there has been a need to develop innovative ways.
Although most email servers are already including some measures, there could
some cases in which higher level security measures would be needed. In this
paper, we propose an end-to-end secure emailing add-in using the steganographic
method, which involves communicating secret data in an appropriate multimedia
carrier, e.g., image, audio, and video files. The purpose of the system outlined in this
paper is to implement the concept of “information confidentially” through both
steganographic and cryptographic techniques. This system is integrated into one
of the most commonly used commercial emailing software, Microsoft Outlook as an
add-in.
