STEGANOGRAPHY ANALYSIS & REASEARCH CENTER
Backbone Security Center of Excelence-The word Steganography is derived from the Greek words steganos which means writing. Thus, Steganography literally means “covered writing.” Steganography has been used throughout history for secret communications. Criminals have always sought ways to conceal their activity in real or physical space.
For example, what has been written may seem to be an ordinary beginning to an ordinary article. It is not. There is a secret message hidden there, in the very paragraph. It is not in view, and its source is modern. But the art of hiding messages is an ancient one, known as Steganography.
Steganography is the dark cousin of cryptography, the use of codes. While cryptography provides privacy, Steganography is intended to provide secrecy.
The key innovation in recent years was to choose an innocent looking cover that contains plenty of random information, called white noise. You can hear white noise as the nearly silent hiss of a blank tape playing. The secret message replaces the white noise, and if done properly it will appear to be as random as the noise was.
With these new techniques, a hidden message is indistinguishable from white noise. Even if the message is suspected, there is no proof of its existence. To actually prove there was a message, and not just randomness, is not possible. This feature is called “plausible deniability,” for absence of proof.
All of this sounds fairly despicable and disreputable, and in fact the obvious uses of Steganography are for things like espionage and treason.
CONSIDER THE PHOTOGRAPH (Above) – By familiarizing ourselves with a few basic nonverbal signals, we can improve our ability to understand what people are really communicating and become aware of what we are broadcasting to the world with our own non-verbal clues.
A person’s body posture, movements and positions more often tell us exactly what they mean (which may be the exact opposite of what they are saying). Many people are unaware of how loudly they communicate with their bodies.
(Sign of the Times)
LAMENTATION FOR TYRE – Tyre, the capital of the Phoenician Empire, likened to a great ship is wrecked.
PSALM 48:9 “You (Jehovah) break the ships of Tarshish [regarded as the caravans that bore the merchandise of the mistress of the sea] with an east wind.”
(Continuing ISAIAH 2:12-22) “…(the wrath of Jehovah is) against all the ships of Tarshish [regarded as the caravans that bore the merchandise of the mistress of the sea]; and against all the desirable craft [evilly embellished with wicked or treacherously deceitful ornamentations].”
