What you can stuff your secret inside
The “carrier” is just the normal file your secret hides in. Pretty much anything people send every day works:
| Type | Files that work |
|---|
| Pictures | PNG, JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF |
| Music | WAV, FLAC, MP3, OGG |
| Video | MP4, AVI |
| Documents | PDF, DOCX |
How? It tweaks the tiniest, most invisible bits of the file — a shade of color your eye can’t tell apart, a sliver of sound your ear can’t catch. The file looks and sounds identical. Your secret’s just quietly in there.
Getting it — pick whichever’s easiest
Windows / Mac — no install, just download and run
Grab the file for your system from the releases page: stegoforge-windows-x86_64.exe, stegoforge-macos-arm64, or stegoforge-linux-x86_64. Double-click. Done.
Linux (Kali / Ubuntu)
sudo apt install ./stegoforge_1.1.5_all.deb
Got Python already? One line:
pip install stegoforge
