S-Tools is a program composed by Andy Brown. It is maybe the most broadly perceived steganography instrument accessible today. You can use BMP, GIF, and WAV file types to cover documents that hide the secret data. The simplicity of the tool lets you drag and drop files easily. S-Tools will conceal the secret message inside the cover file through random accessible bits. These available bits are resolved using a pseudorandom number generator. This nonlinear addition makes the presence and extraction of secret messages increasingly troublesome.

As we mentioned before, using this tool is very easy, drag and drop the cover image file, and then your secret message file on top of it.

On the main display, a small window will pop up asking you to encrypt the stego file. Create a new password for the encryption and click on the “OK” button.

It will generate a new stego image. To save the stego file, right-click on the image and select the “Save as…” option.
