System and method of digital steganography

Abstract

A digital steganography system comprises a message sender in electronic communication with a message receiver through a social media platform. The message sender uses a compute device configured to conceal a secret digital message in the semantic components of a digitally synthesized image which is uploaded onto the social media platform and published in a social media post. As part of the message encoding process, the compute device for the message sender coverts the digital message into binary code, applies encryption and error-correction algorithms, and then implements image synthetization operations to yield the digitally synthesized image. The message receiver is provided with a compute device configured to identify the social media post, automatically download the synthesized image, and apply an inverse set of the image synthetization operations to yield binary code which is subsequently decoded and decrypted in order to extract the original covert message.
