Hi anybody, This 7z allow you hiding many files using LSB Steganographic method in many pics, also let you the possibility to cipher the hidden files using private and public key with ECC (Elliptic curve cryptography), using BouncyCastle Java library or AES-256 bits. Steganographic techniques can be used to hide data in digital media such as images, audio tracks, video clips, or text files. Duqu was an early example of malware that used steganography. It encrypted the gathered information from a victim's system and hid it within an image before exfiltrating the image to. Xiao Steganography is a simple to use free software to hide secret files in BMP images or in WAV files with encryption support. You can load target BMP or WAV file to its interface and then click next to add your secret file (attachment file should be of small size).

If you don’t know what Stegano is, look here.

  • Feb 07, 2017  Macs offer a way to hide files and folders, just like other operating systems. But Mac OS X hides these options and doesn’t make it as easy as it is on Windows and Linux. To hide a file or folder, you’ll need to set the “hidden” attribute for it. The Finder and other Mac apps will then ignore and not display this file or folder by default.
  • Steghide is a steganography program that is able to hide data in various kinds of image- and audio-files. The color- respectivly sample-frequencies are not changed thus making the embedding resistant against first-order statistical tests. SteghideGUI is Qt GUI with various features.

What I am looking for is a software that can hide files in a wide range of other file types. You know, photo, music, video, PDF and what not.

I don’t really mind if it’s in separate software for each file type, but if it comes to that, I would like if it was available as a portable software.

  1. all very good options espesally the web one becouse you check my registy to see if i used this kind of software

  2. Hi
    On a Windows based PC, a simple way to encode information into another file is, from the command prompt -

    COPY /B original.image.jpg + file.to.add.zip new.image.name.jpg

    mp3stego
    http://www.petitcolas.net/fabien/steganography/mp3stego/
    mp3stego is a piece of software which allows to hide files inside MP3s. This is unfortunately Windows only, and no GUI is provided (although one is downloadable). This software also supports passwords. Also, mp3stego is only in proof of concept stage.

    StegoMagic allows you to hide any file or message inside text, Wave and Bitmap files. The restriction of the software is that the file to be hidden can be a maximum of 1/8 of the size as the file it’s to be hidden in. The software is operated through a simple GUI and it also requires passwords. (Windows only)

  3. that is prety good becuose it can stego photo and music files. now lets see if we can find somthing that supports more formats

    • It would be easier if you told us what you want to hide and where..

      Those two tools should support various kinds of files but this random steganographic support comes with a downside, artifacts - this can be discoloration, artifacts during video or audio playback, temporary distortions, etc.

      Being aware of those artifacts and looking at the size of file and it's contents you will easily come to the conclusion that there is something hidden within the file.

      The benefits of tools like Steghide and others which are optimized for certain File types is that they prevent those artifacts.

      • ahhh i see so i dont neccerely want a software that support a large amount of formats becouse then it could be esely detected. very intaresting. i actully did find one that supports BMP,JPG,GIF,MPG, WAV,PDF,EXE,CHM and many more http://sourceforge.net/projects/stegostick/
        does that mean that i sould not use it?

        • When looking for Stegano' software it's a lot about Trial and error.
          I suggested Steghide because it (usually) doesn't effect a decoys image quality.

          I'm sure a lot of the suggestion in here (including your own research) have their strengths and weaknesses.

        • i see well one last Question than: i your opinion what format could handle the most encrytion with the least detection posabillty? as i anderstand not all formats are equal.

        • Honestly I only know the basics of Steganography (not my field of expertise)

          What I can tell you is that any method and Software will succeed [with or without artifacts] if the third person doesn't expect it. You probably could hide data within a JPEG saying 'TOP SECRET'.

          Contrary, if someone is looking for hidden files, the person will find it. There are Tools designed to detect all kinds of encrypted and hidden data, alternate data streams, etc.

          Unless you are going for a government grade Steganographic Software there will always be some trace. And probably even those are detectable..

          Let me give you an example:
          If I had to do a Forensic search on your System I would start scanning your MRU Lists, Registry and System logs for Software related to Encryption and Steganography. For two simple reasons:
          1. If this type of Software was used on your System, there is a high chance you are trying to hide or encrypted data of interest (evidence).
          2. I know what type of Steganography of Encryption I am dealing with.
          Unrelated to the outcome (and as previously mentioned) there are tools designed to find this data which would be next on the ToDo list.

        • what if i hide it wail using a linux live cd? that way there is no registry to check and the third person would not have any reason to check for this

        • It was just an example on the vulnerability [or in this case detection] of Steganography and Encryption.

          Not using Windows is not the solution to the problem. As I said there are Tools specifically designed to scan for Steganography Signatures and Artifacts within the Files.

          I suggest to read through this article (or similar once):
          http://www.garykessler.net/library/fsc_stego.html

          If you want to successfully hide data you have to be more creative.
          For example rip an entire DVD to your Desktop, use Steganography to hide the Data in one of the VOB files. And then burn the entire VIDEO_TS thing back into working Movie DVD and put it in the shelf with the rest of your Movies.

          The fact that I came up with this creative idea - again - is proof that other are able to find your hidden data if they are determined to do so.

          I don't know what top secret documents you are trying to hide. But I know that it will never be a 100% safe no matter where and how you do it.

        • ohh to be onest i am really planing a skavenger hunt for my friends and given that a good portion of them are hackers i dont want any cheating when tring to find out the password

  4. I can offer Steghide
    http://steghide.sourceforge.net/

    It is Open Source, available for Windows + Linux, and Source code if you want to port it to your platform.

  6. Omer,

    I wrote an article about this subject a while back and also recommended a tool: Become a Secret Steganographer: Hide and Encrypt your Files

    Here are some more articles you may find useful:

Steganography is the hiding of a secret message within an ordinary message and the extraction of it at its destination. Steganography is a technology that hides a message within an object, a text, or a picture. It is often confused with cryptography, not in name but in appearance and usage.

The easiest way to differentiate the two is to remember steganography conceals not only the contents of the message but also the mere existence of a message. The original steganographic applications used “null ciphers“, or clear text.

A null cipher conveys that the message has not been encrypted in any way, whether it is using basic character shifting, substitution or advanced modern day encryption algorithm. So, the message is often in plain view but for a reason can either not be detected as being present or cannot be seen once detected.

Steganography is a two-part word of Greek origin. “Stegano“, or “covered” and “graphy” or “writing” does not convey the transformation of information, but rather its hidden aspect.

Here is the list of top 12 best steganography tools which you can easily used in both Windows/Unix Platforms.

1. ImageHide

ImageHide is an application that lets you hide text messages in images, so you can safely share them with your friends. This is a portable software, so installing ImageHide is not necessary. It means that you can place the tool on an external device, plug it into any computer and directly run its executable files.

2. GifShuffle

The program gifshuffle is used to conceal messages in GIF images by shuffling the colour map, which leaves the image visibly unchanged. gifshuffle works with all GIF images, including those with transparency and animation, and in addition provides compression and encryption of the concealed message.

3. QuickStego

QuickStego lets you hide text in pictures so that only other users of QuickStego can retrieve and read the hidden secret messages. Once text is hidden in an image the saved picture is still a ‘picture’, it will load just like any other image and appear as it did before.

But QuickStego does not ENCRYPT the secret text message though it is well hidden in the image. If you require the message to also be encrypted then QuickCrypto is the product for you. QuickCrypto includes the functions of QuickStego but also allows you to securely encrypt text and files and even hide files on your computer.

4. EZStego

This privacy utility demonstrates a new way of communicating securely. Want to communicate securely, but don’t want to send large files of strange-looking numbers? Want to use strong crypto, but know that your email is not secure enough? EZStego works like invisible ink for Internet communication.

EZStego can hide an encrypted text file in a GIF format image file – which is the most commonly used image format on the World Wide Web. The resulting GIF can be attached to an email message or posted on a web page.

6. S-Tools

S-Tools is a steganography tool that hides files in BMP, GIF, and WAV files. You open up a copy of S-Tools and drag pictures and sounds across to it. To hide files you just drag them over open sound/picture windows. You can hide multiple files in one sound/picture and your data is compressed before being encrypted then hidden.

Multi-threaded operation means that you can have many hide/reveal operations going simultaneously without fear of them interfering with you or holding up your work. You can even close the original picture/sound with no ill effects to ongoing threads.

7. JPHS (JPHIDE and JPSEEK)

JPHIDE and JPSEEK are programs which allow you to hide a file in a jpeg visual image. There are lots of versions of similar programs available on the internet but JPHIDE and JPSEEK are rather special. The design objective was not simply to hide a file but rather to do this in such a way that it is impossible to prove that the host file contains a hidden file.

Given a typical visual image, a low insertion rate (under 5%) and the absence of the original file, it is not possible to conclude with any worthwhile certainty that the host file contains inserted data. As the insertion percentage increases the statistical nature of the jpeg coefficients differs from “normal” to the extent that it raises suspicion.
