OpenStego

OpenStego is a super handy Windows app that helps you hide sensitive info right inside your images. It even comes with cool features for encryption and compression!

Easy to Use Interface

When you open OpenStego, you're greeted by a simple layout. It's got all the settings you need to keep your private data safe in pictures and extract any encrypted text when you need it.

Java Requirement

This tool runs on Java, so make sure you've got that set up on your computer before diving in. Without Java, you won't be able to run OpenStego.

Hide Your Files

With OpenStego, you can choose the file you want to hide, pick an algorithm (like LSB or random LSB), and even embed the same message in multiple cover files such as JPG, BMP, GIF, or PNG. Plus, you can easily specify where to save everything!

Add Extra Security

This tool also lets you add an extra layer of security by encrypting your files with passwords. You can compress the images too, so they don’t look suspicious if someone else sees them.

Advanced Features for Pros

If you're more experienced, you'll love the option to use random images as cover files and choose how many bits to use per color channel. For extracting your hidden info, just select the input file and output directory while entering your password.

Performance Insights

During our tests, we noticed that OpenStego gets things done pretty quickly! But like many Java tools, it does use quite a bit of CPU and memory—so keep an eye on your computer's performance.

A Great Tool for Everyone

If you're looking for a solid way to hide sensitive information in everyday-looking photos, OpenStego is perfect! It caters well to both newbies and pros alike.
