SteganoPass - Hidden in Plain Sight

Overview

This is a lightweight, privacy focused password concealer that uses steganography to hide encrypted passwords within image files. This approach provides an additional layer of security by hiding sensitive information in plain sight.

Features

  • Encryption - Encrypts the passwords using user defined key before being hidden in images.
  • Steganography - Hides the passwords within images using LSB steganography.
  • Multiple Format Support - Compatible with image formats such as JPG, BMP, PNG, TGA, and PSD.
  • Simple GUI - Intuitive interface for hiding and extracting passwords from images easily.
  • File Explorer - Built in file navigation system for easy image selection.

Installation

Note: I have not tested SteganoPass on linux or macOS yet.

git clone https://github.com/psdoood/SteganoPass.git

  • For Windows Users - I have provided batch files in the batch diretory to simplify the building process.

    1. build.bat - Either double click or execute this file to start the build process. After it is complete an exe can be found in build/Release called SteganoPass.exe.

    2. run.bat - Alternatively, you can execute this to run the gtest files and the executable.

    3. clean.bat - Execute this if you want to clean the build directory.

  1. Navigate to cloned repository

cd SteganoPass

  1. Create a build directory and navigate to it

mkdir build && cd build

  1. Generate the build files with CMake

cmake ..

  1. Build the project

cmake --build .

  1. Launch SteganoPass with the executable found in build/Release called SteganoPass.

Usage

  1. Launch SteganoPass
  2. Use the File Explorer on the top left to load an image.
  3. Enter the master key and a password you wish to hide in an image in the control window.
  4. Click "Hide Data in Image" to hide the data in the loaded image.
  5. Now save the image using the options in the settings window.
  6. To retrieve password, select image containing the hidden data, enter the key, and click "Extract Data from Image".
