Steno ➿

Ultimate Steganography software:superhero:

The do all steganography application.:grin:
Formats Supported-

Images
Audio
Text
~~Video~~ To be supported in future version

This is an important application especially in today's world.
We need to hide the messages rather than only encrypting them.

Features

Hide your private messages in images, audio & text files.
Forgot password in case you forget.
(Click on the 3 dots in main window to know more)
Access info about any button just by hovering on it.

Using those those 3 dots present in topright of the above window, user can create an account in case they forget the password for their repective hidden messages in files.

Other Notes

All modules are standard modules of batteries included python. Then use the main.py. Having Cascadia Code font makes the GUI look best. Rest the GUI is quite explanatory so hope you don't have any problem using this. In audio steganography only .wav files are supported presently. In images are formats are supported.

Roadmap

Enabling encryption of data
Adding video support

Installation Instruction

# Your global Python installation needs to have pipenv
pip install pipenv

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/aloner-pro/Steno

# Change directories into the project
cd Steno

# [developer only] If you are developer you need to install dependencies for dev
pipenv install --dev

# If you're not a developer just install required dependencies like this
pipenv install

# Activate the Pipenv shell (aka tell your terminal/whatever to use dependencies from the env in this project)
pipenv shell

# Start the program
python -m main.py

Steganography is not Cryptography ! 😕

If you are getting confused between Steganography & Cryptography. Then see this -

Cryptography

If you = wms then Qcaapgrw gq gknmprylr = ?
Can you guess the answer?
Here we have key = -2 i.e. if we go 2 alphabets behind y you get w and similarly if you go 2 alphabets behind o we get m and similarly 2 alphabets behind u gives us s. Therefore you = wms.
So now you may have got the answer which is Security is important.

Note: The cryptography algorithms are much advanced now.

Steganography

So now that you know what is cryptography so lets know what is Steganography.
If ____=____ then ______=______ ?
Confused ?
Here you won't be able to even sense the presence of data. Leave alone knowing what is the data. That's why it is called hiding data in plain sight. There are some applications which may detect the presence of hidden data. CIA obviously has it
Generally at professional level the data hidden is encrypted first. So steganography and cryptography are not mutually exclusive to each other.

Knowledge fact: Jeff Bezos's mobile was hacked by hiding malicious code in a media file which on getting downloaded sent the host device's control to the hacker.
