How to use OpenPuff steganography to send sensitive info securely. Former National Security Agency (NSA) contractor Edward Snowden's revelations regarding the spying activities of the U.S. government and others dealta devastating blow to some of the bedrocks of information security, including the trustworthiness of encryption and virtual private networks (VPN). Now, organizations worldwide must deal with the reality of government entities viewing sensitive corporate secrets, and even the possibility of malicious actors uncovering the same backdoors used by the NSA to steal valuable data. What can enterprises do to protect data during transmission when encryption and VPNs aren't bulletproof?

The OpenPuff steganography tool, created by engineer Cosimo Oliboni, can add an extra layer of protection for those sensitive documents. In this SearchSecurity screencast, Keith Barker, a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and trainer for CBT Nuggets LLC, explains how to use OpenPuff to hide encrypted data in other files when being sent.

List of digital forensics tools. During the 1980s, most digital forensic investigations consisted of "live analysis", examining digital media directly using non-specialist tools. In the 1990s, several freeware and other proprietary tools (both hardware and software) were created to allow investigations to take place without modifying media. This first set of tools mainly focused on computer forensics, although in recent years similar tools have evolved for the field of mobile device forensics.[1] Computer forensics[edit] Memory forensics[edit] Memory forensics tools are used to acquire and/or analyze a computer's volatile memory (RAM). They are often used in incident response situations to preserve evidence in memory that would be lost when a system is shutdown, and to quickly detect stealthy malware by directly examining the operating system and other running software in memory.

Mobile device forensics[edit] Mobile forensics tools tend to consist of both a hardware and software component. Other[edit] References[edit] List of digital forensics tools. TCPDUMP/LIBPCAP public repository. Live View. Digital Corpora.
