Study Notes
Types of Steganography
-
Text Steganography: Involves encoding hidden information within word letters in text files, allowing for secret messaging without altering the visible content.
-
Image Steganography: Conceals data within an image, using pixel intensities to hide information. The image serves as a cover object, making the embedded data undetectable.
-
Audio Steganography: Hides data in audio files, preventing unauthorized reproduction. This often employs watermarking techniques, which embed messages within sound carriers, primarily for audio clips.
-
Video Steganography: Incorporates data into video files by embedding hidden information within the collection of still images that constitute the video. Techniques like Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) disguise data, remaining imperceptible to viewers. Common formats include H.264, MP4, MPEG, and AVI.
-
Network or Protocol Steganography: Utilizes network protocols (e.g., TCP, UDP, ICMP, IP) as cover objects to conceal data. This approach is relevant for establishing covert channels within the OSI model of network architecture.
Examples of Steganography Techniques
- Playing an audio track backward to reveal a hidden message.
- Accelerating video playback to show concealed content.
- Inserting secret messages into the red, green, or blue channels of RGB images.
- Hiding information within a file’s header or metadata to maintain secrecy.
