 Introduction
Steganography is the art and science of
writing hidden messages in such a way
that no one, apart from the sender and
intended recipient, suspects the
existence of the message, a form of
security through obscurity.

1 An example of a message containing cipher text by German Spy in World

War II:
“Apparently neutral’s protest is thoroughly discounted And ignored.
Isman hard hit. Blackade issue affects Pretext for embargo on by
products,ejecting suets and Vegetable oils.”

Taking the second letter in each word the following message emerges:
Pershing sails from NY June 1.

Example : Inserting the word “bomb” using LSB techniques:

-b = 01100010
-o = 01101111
-m = 01101101
-b = 01100010
 Audio Steganography
Phase Coding Method:

The original sound signal is broken up into smaller segments whose lengths are equal

3 to size of message to be encoded.

 Conclusion
Steganography is the study and practice of concealing information
within objects in such a way that it deceives the viewer as if there
is no information hidden within the object. Simply put, it is hiding
information in plain sight, such that only the intended recipient
would get to see it.
