    Steganography Revealed

    By Kristy Westphal

    Steganography is a means of protecting the confidentiality of data by
    "hiding" it within a larger file of data. This technique can be used for
    both legitimate and illegitimate purposes. This article will offer a brief
    introductory discussion of steganography: what it is, how it can be used,
    and the implications it can have for security.
