摘要：Now-a-days, cloud computing proved its impor-tance where it is being used by small and big organizations. The importance of cloud computing is due to the various services provided by the cloud. One of these services is storage as a service (SaaS) which allows users to store their data in the cloud databases. The drawback of this service is the security challenge since a third party manages the data. The users need to feel safe to store their data in the cloud. Consequently, we need for models that will enhance the data security. The image steganography is a way to protect data from unauthorized access. Image steganography allows users to conceal secret data in a cover image. In this paper, we review and compare some of the recent works proposed to protect cloud data using image steganography. The first comparison of models based on the algorithms they used, advantages and drawbacks. The second comparison of the models based on the aims of steganography: quality where the model produces a stego-image with high quality, security where the secret data is difficult to detect and capacity where the model allows to hide large amounts of data.
