Abstract: Data hiding using steganography plays a very important role in providing security, privacy, authentication, and robustness of secret data. In today's digital world, the significance of safeguarding data privacy and its authentication is very crucial and risky. There are many ways to protect and safeguard the security, and privacy of secret data using steganography techniques but, all this steganography approaches are used to embed secret data like images, text, and audio which provide less privacy, and data security. This paper implemented the multi pixel exploiting modification direction (MP-EMD) approach on video where three pixels of any frames are used to embed secret data at a time using forensics detection technique. The simulated and verified results verify the better privacy and safeguarding of the secret data, peak signal noise ratio (PSNR), correlation indicator (CI), robustness, and embedding capacity (EC) as compared to any existing methods.

Keywords: safeguarding; security; privacy; robustness; MP-EMD; forensic detection; peak signal noise ratio; PSNR.
