An Evolution of Hindi Text Steganography

This paper presents a novel Steganography scheme suitable for Hindi text. It can be classified under Text Steganography. Conveying information secretly and establishing a hidden relationship between the message and its counterpart has been of great interest since very long time ago.  Methods of Steganography are mostly applied on images, audio, video and text files. During the process characteristics of these methods are to change in the structure and features so as not to be identifiable by human eye. Text documents are the best examples for this. This paper presents a novel Hindi text steganography,  which uses Hindi letters and its diacritics and numerical code. This method is not only useful to Hindi Text but also to all other similar Indian Languages.
