Abstract
Quantum computing and video message concealment are combined in quantum video steganography. It appears to be a practical method for ensuring the security of multimedia while it is being transmitted. The paper proposes a configuration in which quantum-based video frames conceal encrypted data. Sending remains reasonably effective and visual changes are minimal. The QKD that runs in Qiskit provides the keys needed to lock and unlock the video. The hidden message enters through a quantum embedding stage once frames are transformed into quantum form. A quantum channel is used for the entire process. A decoder at the other end extracts and reconstructs the message. QBER, which measures faulty bits against total bits when noise appears, is used to gauge how well it performs. In practice, it can still be challenging to balance certain aspects of maintaining both security and quality. The concept attempts to address concerns about the video's durability and safety.
