Where the audio and text will be embedded into the color image. Third Least-Significant-Bit (LSB 3) will be used here, rather than utilizing Least-Significant-Bit (LSB 1) of the cover for embedding the information which help to improve the reliability. LSB 1 and LSB 2 might be adjusted by bits of data in order to limit the contrast between the cover and the stego cover. In this research, a stego-key is utilized to permute the characters of data before embedding them and this procedures gives more security. The results of the proposed technique proved that the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) is better than the classical strategies for the same topic. Hence, the suggested framework provides good simulation results. Keywords: LSB;data hiding;embedding algorithm;MSE;technique;embedding
