🕵️ STEGABITS

ADVANCED STEGANOGRAPHY ANALYSIS PLATFORM

🎯 MISSION

Stegabits is a specialized cybersecurity tool designed for extracting hidden data from images using advanced steganography techniques. Built for security researchers, CTF enthusiasts, and digital forensics professionals.

⚡ CAPABILITIES

  • LSB/MSB Analysis: Extract data from least or most significant bits
  • Custom Bit Masks: Define specific bit planes for extraction (e.g., 00000011)
  • Channel Permutations: Analyze all 6 RGB channel order combinations
  • Directional Extraction: Read data by column or row
  • Bruteforce Mode: Automatically try all channel configurations
  • Binary Mode: Extract files, not just text (ZIP, images, etc.)

🔧 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Framework: Flask (Python)
Image Processing: Pillow (PIL)
Max Upload: 16 MB
Supported Formats: PNG, JPG, BMP, GIF, TIFF

📖 HOW IT WORKS

  1. Upload an image that may contain hidden data
  2. Configure extraction parameters (bit type, channel order, etc.)
  3. Execute analysis to extract hidden bits
  4. Review extracted data across different configurations
  5. Decode hidden messages or files

⚠️ USE CASES

  • CTF (Capture The Flag) competitions
  • Digital forensics investigations
  • Security research and analysis
  • Educational steganography demonstrations
  • Authorized penetration testing

⚡ SECURITY NOTICE

This tool is designed for AUTHORIZED security research and educational purposes only. Unauthorized access to data, systems, or communications may be illegal. Always obtain proper authorization before analyzing images that you do not own or have explicit permission to examine.
