(Steganography: Lesson 1)
{ Using Quick Stego to Embed Secret Messages Into Pictures } Section 0: Background Information
1. What is Steganography Steganography is the science of writing hidden messages in such a way that no one apart from the sender and intended recipient even realizes there is a hidden message. 2. What is 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. The image can be saved, emailed, uploaded to the web (, the only difference will be that it contains hidden text.
