So here's the 'obvious' question:
How fast can dedicated hardware run if it were a dedicated Stegedetect processor?
In other words, how easy would it be for NSA, et al to scan 'every' photo on the internet for Stego traces? (And then, every photo being emailed?)
And then, how fast can someone write a worm that will make every photo stored on a harddrive look like it's been stegoed?

Steganography Detection with Stegdetect Stegdetect is an automated tool for detecting steganographic content in images. It is capable of detecting several different steganographic methods to embed hidden information in JPEG images. Currently, the detectable schemes are
* jsteg, * jphide (unix and windows), * invisible secrets, * outguess 01.3b, * F5 (header analysis), * appendX and camouflage.
Stegbreak is used to launch dictionary attacks against JSteg-Shell, JPHide and OutGuess 0.13b.
Stegdetect and Stegbreak have been developed by Niels Provos.
