6/16/2023 0 Comments Encode message with outguess![]() This allows an eavesdropper to detect media that has been modified, revealing that secret communication is taking place. Because of their invasive nature, steganography systems leave detectable traces within a medium’s characteristics. ![]() Classical steganography systems depend on keeping the encoding system secret, but modern steganography is detectable only if secret information is known, e.g. Steganography is the art and science of hiding that communication is happening. Please see each source file for its respective license. It is completely free for any use including commercial. OutGuess is available under a BSD software license. You can download OutGuess as UNIX source tar ball. In the next paragraphs, images will be used as concrete example of data objects, though OutGuess can use any kind of data, as long as a handler is provided. In this version the PNM and JPEG image formats are supported. The program relies on data specific handlers that will extract redundant bits and write them back after modification. The nature of the data source is irrelevant to the core of OutGuess. Or you can abuse the fact that humans can't see the difference between a pixel 1111111110 so you can use the last bit to encode your data.OutGuess is a universal steganographic tool that allows the insertion of hidden information into the redundant bits of data sources. You can give meaning to things in some format that don't have meaning in their intended format. ![]() Which is rendered as This is a short textĬontains 4 bits of hidden data. For example: 2 spaces -> 1 bit, 3 spaces -> 0 bit so this text in html: This is a short text. But these spacings you can use to encode bits. You can hide text in html by abusing the fact that multiple spaces are rendered as a single space so when you open the file in a browser you see nothing. That's why you can hide almost anything in anything. WE give them meaning by associating a type & encoding with it. It could be a character, it could be 8 single bits, it could be 2 4-bit unsigned numbers, it could be a pixel in an image, it could be 8 pixels in a black white image it could be a 1 byte instruction. If you see 8bits 10101010 you have absolutely zero clue as to what these bits represent. People think data is somehow "typed" or has an innate format of some sort. you gonna have to read the documentation of the individual tool and hope they document how they do it or you gonna have to read their source code. If you want to know how each individual tool works. you can hide pretty much "anything" in "anything" - but it depends on how much secret data you can hide in non-secret data so depending on the methods you use you're limited in how much data you can hide. You can use txt files, you can use html files, you can use word documents, you can use audio files. There are methods that require a key and methods that don't require a key (or passphrase). There are various techniques you can use to embed data into an image starting from just embeding black-white images in the least significant bit of each color channel to more sophisticated methods to methods that only work for specific image formats etc.
