Steganography
Nov 07, 2002, 13:28
Paedophiles sometimes take the bus, but everybody on a bus isn't a paedophile ( unless its the No27 to Bo'ness perhaps). IT professionals for years have hidden their dodgy files by encrypting them into other files whether it be executables or music. ( If you ever hear a slight beep in a downloaded MP3 then its probably someones information)

Steganography - sticking data into pictures allows complex communication via government or corporate websites. Before people hid ever porn, they hid 'the anarchists cookbook'. Although developed to evade censorship, it has everyday uses. For instance, your photos on Pauls websites could also contain all your favourite books, songs, sexual positions or whatever.

PGP is like sticking your email into a sealed envelope and marking it 'Secret! Please don't open'. Steganography is like a sealed envelope that looks like a photograph.
