DISCUSSIONS
It was observed that the original image size was 2 kB, while the shares generated ranged
around 25 kB each, resulting in a final decrypted output of 10 kB. This disparity in file
sizes could potentially lead to a loss of information during data transfer, indicating a
limitation of the (k, n) cryptography scheme in terms of clarity and efficiency.

A comparative analysis of the three cryptographic algorithms revealed that while the (2,
2) visual cryptography scheme necessitates both shares for revealing the secret
information, the (k, n) scheme allows for efficient decryption using any k shares, even if
some are lost. However, to enhance security, the general access structure visual
cryptography method restricts the use of forbidden shares for secret image generation.
This comparison underscores the superior security offered by the extended general
access structure visual cryptography, positioning it as an effective solution for
safeguarding sensitive data.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the study highlights the significance of data security,
especially concerning the protection of sensitive information like defense
data. Through meticulous analysis, it was determined that extended visual
cryptography employing a general access structure emerges as the optimal
approach for maintaining data integrity and confidentiality. Additionally,
the incorporation of region incrementing techniques enhances security
measures, providing a robust framework against potential threats. Looking
ahead, ongoing research in this domain promises to further refine existing
methods and tackle emerging security challenges, thereby fortifying data
protection in various applications and sectors.
