What is Data Stash? Data Stash is a steganographic security tool. Steganography is the Art of Hidden Writing, and Data Stash uses this technique to hide files. A clever little security tool, Data Stash allows you to hide sensitive data files within other files using steganography. Select a large bitmap or database file (or any file you'd like to use) as a receptacle, then add the data files you'd like to hide, via an easy drag and drop mechanism. The receptacle file remains fully functional, looks and behaves similar to what it was before.

Password protection is also provided, using Blowfish encryption. This is useful if you wish to keep out certain files from prying eyes, under the disguise of a normal file. For example you can hide 10 sensitive Word document files into a picture file, and retrieve them later. Opening the picture file would only show the picture image, and not the Word document files that are stored within it. Check out the demo for a visual demonstration Data Stash was mentioned in a Bangkok post newspaper article in Feb '01. Read about it.
