HPR4394: Digital Steganography Intro


Listen Later

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host.

Apologies for not introducing myself in the audio! I struggled a bit to take on this topic at a high enough level to keep it to about a half hour, because every subtopic is nuanced and the details are always technical.


Not sure how well it worked out but my intention was to focus mainly on the 2 most common examples - hiding messages in text and in images.


Topics I mentioned:

  • encryption vs steganography
  • who uses steganography and for what purpose?
  • hiding text in text
  • hiding data in images using LSB encoding
  • hiding data in other places
  • steganalysis


    If you want to leave feedback, consider saying whether you think it would be more useful to talk about:

    • using the most popular tools and software
    • detailed look at specific steganographic techniques
    • case studies

      in the unlikely case that I do a followup episode (I doubt there's a strong interest in this topic)


      Provide feedback on this episode.
