SecureIT - Data Security using Cryptography and Steganography

Demo: Youtube

Run in GitPod

Open in Gitpod

  • This is a Python based tool to encrypt files and important data into a very secure form.
  • It uses Cryptography (RSA, AES and TripleDES) and Steganography (Image Steganography and Video Steganography)

Requirements (installable via pip)

What I used?

  1. pycrypto - for Cryptography based encryption - It is used to encrypt and decrypt data into secured unreadable form.
  2. opencv2 - for Steganography - It is used for image and video manipulation. We used it for embedding encrypted data into images/videos.
  3. rsa - for RSA based encryption - RSA is a asymmetric encryption method, used for encrypting data.

How to run the program?

  1. Download this GitHub repository

    • Either Clone the repository 
       git clone https://github.com/Kunal-Attri/Data-Security-using-Cryptography-and-Steganography.git
    • Or download and extract the zip archive of the repository.

  2. Download & Install requirements

    • Ensure that you have Python 3 installed.
    • Open terminal in the Repository folder on your local machine.
    • Run the following command to install requirements. 
       pip install -r requirements.txt

  3. Run the Program

    python main.py

    Expected Interface:

  4. Generate RSA Keys

    • If running first time, you need to generate RSA Keys.
    • Generate it using option no 5.

  5. Ready to Secure data

    • Now, you can secure your data files into either images or videos.
