pygui-steganography

pygui-steganography is a Python-based GUI application that allows users to perform steganography, which is the practice of concealing data within other data. This application is built on top of the LSB-Steganography project and provides a user-friendly interface for encoding and decoding data using the Least Significant Bit (LSB) technique.

Features

  • Encode and decode text, images, and binary data within images
  • Intuitive graphical user interface using PyQt5
  • Support for various image formats (PNG, BMP)
  • Customizable steganography options

Usage

Launch:

python main.py
  1. Select Mode: Choose "Encode" or "Decode."
  2. Choose Steganography Type: Select "Text", "Image", or "Binary."
  3. Encoding:
    • Choose the carrier image.
    • Select the data to hide (text, image, or binary file).
    • Click "Encode" to embed your data.
