Responsibilities
- Leveraged steganography and cryptography for a secure and invisible watermarking within image files.
- Encrypted the watermark using the AES-256 algorithm, with hashing via SHA-256 for integrity checking purposes.
- Embedded the encrypted text into the carrier image via the LSB (Least Significant Bit) algorithm.
- Built a sharing functionality where users can share the watermarked image using Outlook Desktop.
