On the subject of stego, this showed up earlier this week: To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: P2P Stego Treasure Hunt We've put into Morpheus a song, "Grayson_Shoot_The_Piano_Player.mp3" which has a stego'd message in it. The tool is mp3stego v 1.1.15 (source available; see <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~fapp2/steganography/mp3stego/> ) and the (3DES) passphrase is "writecode" Another file "DrDidg_RaveOn.mp3" has another message under the same passphrase. We are curious how readily the Morpheus search engine can be used for transport purposes. In this instance we give unique names to files not otherwise found in the system. Another experiment in P2P percolation would be to add similar 'watermarks' (microdots) to files which are abundantly replicated. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The Cryptography Mailing List Unsubscribe by sending "unsubscribe cryptography" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
