A Detailed look at Steganographic Techniques and their use in an Open-Systems Environment

This paper's focus is on a relatively new field of study in Information Technology known as Steganography. This paper will take an in-depth look at this technology by introducing the reader to various concepts of Steganography, a brief history of Steganography and a look at some of the Steganographic techniques available today. The paper will close by looking at how we can use Steganography in an open-systems environment such as the Internet, as well as some of the tools and resources available to help us accomplish this.
