Steganography Software Tool
Steganography (literally meaning “Covered Writing”) dates back to ancient Greece, where common practices consisted of
etching messages in wooden tablets and covering them with wax, and tattooing a shaved messenger’s head, letting his
hair grow back, then shaving it again when he arrived at his contact point.
In ancient Greece, people also used to write on wax-covered tablets. The first documented occurrence of Steganography
was in the document the Histories of Herodotus, when Demeratus sent a secret message past guards by removing the wax
from the tablet, writing on the tablet itself, and covering the tablet with wax again to disguise the message. Invisible
ink is a form of steganography used in recent centuries.
Another form of Steganography is in null ciphers, or unencrypted text messages. For example, one could hide a text message
within a paragraph of words, so that by isolating every 10th word, the secret message can be detected. The paragraph itself
would sound innocent to escape detection. This form of steganography was often used in wars among spies.
Recently, computerised Steganography has become popular. Using different methods of encoding, secret messages can be hidden
in digital data, such as .bmp or .jpg images, .wav audio files, or e-mail messages. Authors are able to watermark their
property in this manner.
