High efficiency video coding (HEVC) standard is highly contributive in data hiding. Combining the HEVC standard with data hiding methods is a complex task, and because the highly efficient coding process is a powerful attack, eliminating some of the original video data would not have a significant effect on obtaining the best compression rates and transmission efficiency. The data embedded in the pixels is lost when compressed with the HEVC standard. In order to solve this problem, we need to use features other than the pixel value .In this paper, an efficient data hiding method is proposed through intra prediction modes in HEVC, where the intra prediction modes is applied as the secret data carrier obtained from the N smallest prediction units. The experimental results show that the average PSNR decreased by 0.11 db, while the bit rate increased by on average 0.25%.
