Why Steganography is the Secret Ingredient You Didn’t Know SVG Needed!
Steganography isn’t exactly my favorite topic—it’s like the infosec world’s neat little toy that just sits there collecting dust. But hey, kids these days still love it! Using SVG images for steganography might just be the new way to hide secrets without losing details.
Hot Take:
Steganography is like the secret decoder ring of the infosec world – it’s cool to have, but most of the time, a good old-fashioned data append will do the trick. While kids these days might be all about hiding their secrets in SVGs, I’m more concerned with making sure my dogs get their walk. Let’s be real: steganography is more about the thrill of the chase than practical use. But hey, who doesn’t like a good mystery?
Key Points:
– Steganography hides data within images, but practicality is often questionable.
– Bitmap images are prone to compression losses, making them a poor choice for steganography.
– SVG images offer potential for steganography with vector manipulation and are less affected by compression.
– Observers can detect steganography if they know what to look for; encryption is recommended.
– Steganography in SVGs is fun, but don’t forget to walk the dogs.
