The analogy is one of defense in depth: if you're serious about security, you can use memorized & typed secondary passwords on secure apps, such as secure notes in 1Password, or an app like https://guardianproject.info/apps/pixelknot/ https://guardianproject.info/apps/pixelknot/ that would steganographically encode secure notes into otherwise normal photos, potentially with independent passwords for complete deniability.
A locked door and a face-locked iPhone are only the first line of defense, and are largely for convenience's sake in both daily use/as a deterrent and in the case of physically being distant from your property. The "guns" are entirely independent.
- splintercell 9y agoI am not a huge fan of Steganography in images. There are far too many services out there which take the liberty of modifying or re-encoding your images to a different format for various reasons. Is there a lossless medium which can be used for steganography?
- anko 9y agoIf it's lossless, then where do you hide the message? In "comment" sections? Not very well hidden. How many formats are there where you can intentionally encode something with meaningless characters?
