Abstract: Security is an important issue related to the storage and communication of data and information. In data and information security, cryptography and steganography are two of the most common security techniques. On one hand, there is cryptography, which is the secret communication between two parties by message scrambling on the sender’s side and message unscrambling on the receiver’s side so that only the intended receiver gets the secret message. Cryptography and cryptanalysis constitute cryptology (or crypto) while steganography and steganalysis make up steganology (or stegano). This paper presents a comparative survey of various cryptology and steganology techniques by analyzing and comparing different methodologies using a set of predefined parameters. It also offers to the reader valuable knowledge on the state of the art techniques used on cryptanalysis.
