Abstract
The introduction of steganography has brought plenty of improvement to information security, but not really employed in Information banks and this is often as a results of the protection issues that come together with the employment of Information security. Security issues is taken into account a significant concern which is why every individual still opt to follow the normal way of addressing sensitive information. The aim of this study is to enhance end to end messaging security using image steganography technique. End to End SMS has always been dealing with security missues as there are no security measures being put in place to improve the Confidentiality of the context of the SMS. The Methodology used in this study implore the use of mathematical expression as the first step is to convert the secret message into binary and thus obtain a bitstream as the result of this step. then divide
the obtained bitstream into a set of groups with three bits in each group. To this end, from the least significant bit, grouping is then done to every three continuous bits in a group. The result of this study is presented as a software solution, as it is implemented and tested for use. This study uses evaluation parameters like Mean square error and Peak Signal to Noise Ratio to measure the performance of the images that are used in the cause of this study, the images that are evaluated is the stego-image with text of different word-lengths embedded in it.
