In this paper, we propose an effective reversible data hiding technique that increases the confidential data hiding amount of the NSAS technique itself by utilizing the characteristics of image. The proposed technique shifts the histogram using multiple zeros of the histogram and hides 2 bits of confidential data at each peak point. Using the proposed technique, the amount of confidential data that can be hidden is doubled compared to the existing technique, and high-quality stego-image can be created. Confidential data can be restored without loss from the stego- image, and the original cover image can be restored without loss. Through experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed technique can hide twice as much confidential data than the existing technique, and the image quality of the stego-image is very good with a maximum of 39.75dB.
