Concealing the existence of secret hidden message inside a cover object is known as
steganography, which is a powerful technique. We can provide a secret communication
between sender and receiver using Steganography. In this paper, the main goal is for hiding
secret message into the pixels using Least Significant Bit (LSB) of blue sector of the cover
image. Therefore, the objective is by mapping technique presenting a model for hiding text in
an image. In the model for proposing the secret message, convert text to binary also the
covering (image) is divided into its three original colors, Red, Green and Blue (RGB) , use the
Blue sector convert it to binary, hide two bits from the message in two bits of the least
significant bits of blue sector of the image
