Abstract

Steganography is the art of hiding secret messages within a non-secret object. It helps hide information in images such as graphics interchange format (GIF) images, text, audio, and video. In GIFs, animated GIFs are a common form of media. GIF images are mainly classified into two types: GIF87a and GIF89a. GIF87a is a type of palette-based image, and GIF89a is the improved version of GIF87a because the GIF89a image has more than one frame. Furthermore, it allows the GIF image to play simple animations. In addition, message hiding in palette-based graphics can be accomplished in two significant ways: firstly, by embedding messages into the frame, and secondly, by embedding messages into the palette. The primary goal of this paper is to review and describe numerous methodologies for hiding data within the GIF images and make a detailed comparison of these methods.
