steghide:tldr:bb370
This command is using a tool called "steghide" to embed a file into an image using steganography. Steganography is the practice of hiding data within another file to conceal its existence.
Here is the breakdown of the command:
-
"steghide embed": This is the command to embed a file using steghide.
-
"--coverfile ${path-to-image-jpg}": This option specifies the path to the image file (in JPG format) that will be the cover or container file for hiding the data. You need to replace "${path-to-image-jpg}" with the actual path to your image file.
-
"--embedfile ${path-to-data-txt}": This option specifies the path to the data file (in TXT format) that you want to hide within the image. Replace "${path-to-data-txt}" with the actual path to your data file.
-
"--encryption ${select}": This option specifies the encryption method to use for the embedded file. "${select}" should be replaced with the desired encryption method, such as "AES-256" or "DES". Choose the appropriate encryption method based on your requirements.
-
"${select1}": This refers to another selection, but without more context, it's not clear what it represents. It could be an additional encryption parameter, password, or any other input required by the steghide tool. You need to replace "${select1}" with the appropriate value or selection based on your specific needs.
Overall, this command will use steghide to embed the specified data file into the provided image file using the chosen encryption method.
