The invention discloses a separable ciphertext domain reversible data hiding method based on bit plane segmentation, and the method comprises the steps: firstly providing a block classification scrambling algorithm and a traversal matrix encryption algorithm, and completing the encryption of an original image; secondly, realizing watermark image encryption by utilizing Hilbert curve encryption; in a ciphertext domain, an all-bit-plane scrambling technology is adopted, bit-plane rotation is firstly implemented, then the bit-plane rotation is partitioned and classified into continuous blocks and discontinuous blocks, and finally reversible data hiding is realized according to a pixel prediction method. Meanwhile, the secret keys can be separated, the hidden watermark can be extracted by the hidden secret key, the original image can be recovered by the encrypted secret key, and the watermark image can be extracted and the original image can be recovered by the double secret keys. According to the method, 100% reversibility is realized based on pixel prediction, the watermark image can be extracted without errors, the original image can be recovered 100%, and the method has the advantages of high safety, large capacity, high quality and good robustness.
