StegoFS

Presented at DEF CON 16 (2008), Aug. 8, 2008, 4 p.m. (50 minutes)

This talk will reintroduce classic steganographic techniques to use with serializing, watermarking, or stashing your data in the latest Internet meme. Why not let everyone who is forwarding yet another painful nut-shot AFHV clip store your data for you? We will create a simple filesystem that is robust enough to survive conversion, and building a structure to organize the data, focusing on indirection and fault tolerance.
