abstract
Ensuring secure communication is crucial in today's era, and concealing data within cover images is essential. Ancient authors displayed remarkable intelligence and proficiency across multiple fields, showcasing a rich vocabulary and skill in conveying ideas succinctly. They adeptly conveyed messages using minimal characters, a talent commonly seen among many Indians who excelled in Mathematics, Arts, and Sciences. Present research is focused on determining optimal positions for hiding data by exploring various cryptographic patterns. Patterns derived from Desikar Chitrapadhati of Paduka Sahasram are particularly valuable, as Desikar intricately embedded his verses within diverse chitra patterns. Utilizing these patterns aids in reconstructing data securely. This paper examines slokas presented in matrix format, establishing connections with cryptographic patterns to securely store the original text.
