English Abstract

In recent years, internet and mobile is widely used for communication.

Short messaging service (SMS) and multimedia messaging service (MMS) are the popular services provided by the telecommunication companies.

These services make the communication so fast and easy, attention toward information security must be increased, and protection becomes a necessity because of the threats to the privacy and security.

Hiding technique or as called steganography is used to hide the transferred secret information existence with other information.

When data is hidden within text or image apparently may look the same for the naked eye of a person.

The steganography software for mobile application is designed upon using the mobile phone messaging architecture system, and use steganography technique to hide secret messages into SMS and mms covers.

By using soap algorithm to embed secret message into cover message and generate stego text (SMS).

The LSB algorithm will be used to embed secret message into cover image, generate Stego image (MMS) and using the same menu for the messages of the mobile phone system.

It is possible to extract directly the hidden secret message by the receiver.

This software is implemented by using J2ME (java 2 micro edition) programming language, and the dependence flexibility of the software load on all mobile types that have the property of the send messages.
