A C-based project for hiding and extracting secret information within images using least significant bit manipulation.
This image steganography project in C focuses on hiding secret data within an image using least significant bit manipulation. By altering the least important bits of image pixels, the visual appearance remains unchanged while concealing information.
The project includes both encoding functionality to hide data within images and decoding capabilities to extract the hidden information later. Careful attention was paid to error handling, code efficiency, and clean implementation. The steganographic technique ensures that the modified image appears identical to the original to casual observers, maintaining the secrecy of the embedded data.
Future enhancements could include implementing different steganographic techniques and adding encryption methods to further secure the hidden information.
