If you have ever explored cybersecurity, you probably know about Steganographyโ€”the art of hiding secret messages inside an image. The most popular approach is usually the LSB (Least Significant Bit) method, where we slightly alter the pixel colors to embed text. The problem? Modern detection tools (steganalysis) are incredibly smart. Altering even a single bit can trigger an alert that the image has been manipulated. So, what if we could hide data without changing a single pixel of the original image? Welcome to the world of Coverless Steganography. Academic Attribution ๐Ÿ“š The article and code below are the result of my independent breakdown and implementation based on an excellent academic paper titled: "A Novel Coverless Information Hiding Method Based on the Most Significant Bit of the Cover Image" by Lina Yang, Haiyu Deng, and Xiaocui Dang (IEEE Access, 2020). DOI: 10.1109/ACCESS.2020.3000993 Let us break down how it works and write the code in Python!โ€ฆ
