Abstract
Industries across the world produce thousands of confidential images and other data that needs to be secured on a daily basis. With the onset of the information era and the exponential growth of technologies like big data, security of private and confidential information in any form has become a challenge. Many times, these images need to be transmitted over public networks to facilitate wireless monitoring and sharing testing results with remote operators. This transmission needs to be secure to ensure the safety and confidentiality of the images, thus cryptography techniques like image steganography are required. In this prototype, we have designed, developed and tested a Raspberry Pi LAMP web server which stores images locally which are obtained using an ESP32-Cam, and which facilitates transmission using the steganography technique. There is also an option to store these images on any other widely used cloud server, and the transmission can still use steganography encryption for an extra layer of security. The stored images can only be accessed by authorized users.
