Video is compressed to move the redundancies for efficient communication. In this paper, we use a steganography method for verification of the video content at the receiver side. The main idea of the proposed steganography method is based on the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). It is based on creating a signature for each block of the DCT of the compressed video sequence to be embedded in another block. This is attributed to the fact that most DCT coefficients of the compressed video sequence are either zero or close to zero. Simulation results reveal the robustness of the suggested steganography method.
