Abstract

Digital images like military, medical and quality control images are increasingly stored over cloud server. These images need protection against attempts to manipulate them since manipulations could tamper the decisions based on these images, many approaches have been proposed to protect the privacy of multimedia images over cloud through cryptography, these cryptographic approaches prevent the visibility of image contents but it does not identify if any changes are made on encrypted data by insider attack and cipher-text only attack. In this paper, we proposed to provide authentication, tamper localization, rectification along with privacy preservation of the image using padding extra bit plane for tamper localization, Hash message authentication code (HMAC) algorithm to authentication image, tamper rectification. The proposed algorithm will provide privacy to the image through hiding bit planes.
