Web Authentication Security Using Image Steganography and AES Encryption

Abstract

In this paper we present Web based highly secure Authentication Security system that uses Image Steganography and 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard algorithm. Our developed web authentication system encrypts users passwords with an AES encryption that takes octillion years to decrypt and is coupled with face identification photograph which is used as a stegoimage to hide the encrypted password for more robust security. When put to test our Web Authentication Security systems shows positive results which outstand advanced steganalysis attacks such as the chi-squared attack and neighbourhood histogram. We recommend this security for prospective web applications of the future that will be handling sensitive user information.
