Abstract	This paper presents an intelligent data hiding system that combines neural networks with AES encryption to achieve secure and imperceptible image steganography. The proposed framework first encrypts secret data using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to ensure confidentiality, and then employs a deep learning-based model to embed the encrypted data within cover images with minimal perceptual distortion.
