Steganography exists from many years in a variety of forms and has been used in a variety of domains. There are various types of steganographic techniques that are used to hide data in various file formats. The proposed model uses three layers of security using three algorithms namely, LSB, DES and AES. The software allows the user to encrypt the secret message which gets protected by undergoing three layers of encryption. The output of the encryption process which is the steno image can be sent across through any medium along with the secret key to decrypt. The end user then uses a unique key to extract and decrypt the secret message from the image. There are many reasons to hide data but the simplest is the need to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing the secret information.
