The correct answer is C: Cover generation techniques. Cover generation techniques generate a new cover object (e.g., a dummy image or document) specifically to hide and carry the secret message, effectively creating the cover medium from scratch. Substitution techniques embed data by replacing insignificant bits (e.g., LSB). Transfo

Question

Which of the following Steganography techniques allows you to encode information that ensures creation of cover for secret communication?

Options

  • ASubstitution techniques
  • BTransform domain techniques
  • CCover generation techniques
  • DSpread spectrum techniques

Explanation

Cover generation techniques generate a new cover object (e.g., a dummy image or document) specifically to hide and carry the secret message, effectively creating the cover medium from scratch. Substitution techniques embed data by replacing insignificant bits (e.g., LSB). Transform domain techniques hide data in frequency-domain coefficients (e.g., DCT in JPEG). Spread spectrum techniques distribute the secret signal across a wide frequency band. Only cover generation techniques are designed with the explicit purpose of manufacturing a plausible-looking carrier to conceal communication.
