Announcing the release of Anti-Steganography (AntiSteg v1.00)

Announcing the release of Anti-Steganography (AntiSteg v1.00):

antisteg100.zip    AntiSteg 1.00: Anti-Steganography

AntiSteg is a command line tool for cleaning images of potentially
harmful steganographical content. Many popular image formats
(especially those used on the Web) are handled by the tool.

Steganography is a means by which information is hidden inside
of images (often via high-encryption algorithms), making them
completely invisible to all standard image viewers. Stegged
images can carry extremely harmful payloads, which include,
but are not limited to:

Child pornography
Viruses, Trojans, Spyware, Spamware, and other Malware
Sensitive personal/corporate Data

AntiSteg does not attempt to extract the actual hidden data,
but simply antistegs the content, making it impossible to be
retrieved at a later point in time.
This approach allows it to quickly clean a computer, even if
100,000s of images are stored on it. In contrast, trying to
desteg just one image which uses a high encryption encoding
(256 bit or higher), and a properly selected password is
computationally nearly infeasible.

Since the amount of images stored on the Web approaches
staggering numbers (anywhere from 100s of billions to trillions),
the possibility to successfully store and trade/sell child
pornography, distribute viruses, or exchange sensitive
information is very high. Even worse, anybody who operates a
web site (personal or corporate) that contains images, may
unwittingly be helping pedophiles, black-hat hackers, or data
spies in their operations. Of course, the same holds
true for any e-mail attachment, or MMS being sent!

Currently available antivirus, antispyware, and antimalware
tools do NOT address this problem!
Companies that allow image specific searches - like Google - do
NOTHING to prevent stegged images from being spread via
their services!

Special requirements: None.
