This repo corresponds to a short Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS) skill session I gave at Arizona State University in September of 2024.
- A modern installation of Python 3 (Later is better)
- Python image library (PIL)
pip install pillow - Numpy
pip install numpy
Note, you can install both of these libraries with the requirements.txt file in the repo by running pip install -r requirements.txt.
This repo contains a main.py script that embeds a simple ASCII message into a source image located in the repo at ./images/source.bmp.
You can run the script to embed your own message, but the message to recover for the challenge is located in challenge.bmp. The image is a picture of a dog. You are to recover the following information based on the embedding procedure defined in main.py:
- What is the dog's name?
- How old is the dog?
- Where does the dog live?
Here is the challenge image:
Steganography is very fragile so you should work with this image by cloning this repo directly and not downloading the image from this README.
