Cloud Computing has evolved into a major technology in recent days to serve its customers in many ways. The shared pool of resources with configuration requirement needed by the customer is provided in an elegant manner. Data sharing is one of the important activities in cloud environment which requires confidentiality, integrity, authentication and nonrepudiation principles to provide data security. Providing the security and maintaining integrity of the data while it is being transferred through public channels is a challenging task. This paper attempts to answer that challenge by securing the data through image steganography. It is a modified LSB image steganographic technique using a password to hide data in an image. An analysis is performed for the techniques used and the number of characters hidden in the image.
