## Abstract (arXiv)

Digital steganography is the practice of concealing for encrypted data transmission. Typically, steganography methods embed secret data into cover data to create stega data that incorporates hidden secret data. However, steganography techniques often require designing specific frameworks for each data type, which restricts their generalizability. In this paper, we present U-INR, a novel method for steganography via Implicit Neural Representation (INR). Rather than using the specific framework for each data format, we directly use the neurons of the INR network to represent the secret data and cover data across different data types. To achieve this idea, a private key is shared between the data sender and receivers. Such a private key can be used to determine the position of secret data in INR networks. To effectively leverage this key, we further introduce a key-based selection strategy that can be used to determine the position within the INRs for data storage. Comprehensive experiments across multiple data types, including images, videos, audio, and SDF and NeRF, demonstrate the generalizability and effectiveness of U-INR, emphasizing its potential for improving data security and privacy in various applications.
