This book delves into the fundamentals of steganography, the ancient art of hiding messages in plain sight. From the historical roots to modern applications, readers are taken on a journey through the techniques that transform seemingly ordinary content into carriers of covert communication. The book not only demystifies the basics of steganography but also sheds light on its contemporary applications in digital security, forensics and confidential messaging.
Beginning with the ancient origins of hidden writing, the book builds a clear picture of how steganography has evolved alongside cryptography and cyber security. It then moves into the digital realm, explaining with clarity how messages are embedded within images, audio and video files, and how these methods are analysed, tested and, ultimately, uncovered.
Balancing theory with application, the text introduces key measures of quality, such as PSNR and MSE, and unpacks practical techniques used for both embedding and detecting hidden data. The discussion of steganalysis tools is especially valuable, giving readers a grounded understanding of the strengths and limitations of current approaches.
Applications are drawn from real-world domains – from digital forensics and cyber defence to secure communications – demonstrating why steganography matters not only as a technical discipline but as a practical skill. The authors also look ahead, surveying the challenges posed by increasingly complex media formats and the potential directions of future research.
