Phasm vs StegInsight

Hidden in plain sight. Phasm turns ordinary photos into secret messengers. Your photo looks exactly the same — but it carries encrypted messages and files that only someone with the right passphrase can reveal. TWO MODES FOR TWO NEEDS • Ghost Mode — Maximum stealth. Advanced adaptive algorithms make hidden data virtually undetectable, even by statistical analysis tools. Deep Cover auto-activates for non-JPEG photos with ~43% more capacity. Supports file attachments alongside your message. • Armor Mode — Maximum durability. Your hidden message survives recompression, re-encoding, and mild cropping. Fortress sub-mode auto-activates for short messages and handles aggressive compression from popular messaging apps. SERIOUS ENCRYPTION • AES-256-GCM-SIV authenticated encryption — always on, not optional. • Argon2id key derivation — resistant to brute-force and GPU attacks. • Post-quantum safe — 256-bit symmetric keys remain secure against quantum computers. • No backdoors. No key escrow. You hold the only key. PRIVACY BY DESIGN • All processing happens on your device. Nothing is uploaded. • No account. No sign-up. No tracking. No ads. • Open-source Rust cryptographic engine — auditable by anyone. • Built for journalists, researchers, activists, curious tinkerers — or just for fun. ONE PHOTO. MULTIPLE SECRETS. Shadow Messages let you hide several independent messages in a single photo — each locked with its own passphrase. Send the same picture to five friends; each one discovers a different message using their name as the key. Nobody knows the others exist. Under pressure to reveal your passphrase? Hand over the primary one. Your shadow messages stay invisible — no header, no marker, no proof they were ever there. MAGIC WAND — ONE TAP TO OPTIMIZE Tap the wand and your photo is silently tuned for better steganographic embedding. Imperceptible texture is added to smooth regions like skies, bokeh, and flat backgrounds — boosting capacity by 10–35% with no visible change. The photo looks identical. The math works better. SHARE YOUR WAY • Share via AirDrop, Messages, email, or any app that handles images. • phasm.link — generate a short link so recipients can decode instantly in the browser or via App Clip. No install needed. • For guaranteed delivery through messaging apps, use "send as file." BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD • Native app optimized for iPhone and iPad. • Supports JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and HEIC — auto-converted for embedding. • Real-time decode progress with integrity scoring. • 38 languages supported. HONEST ABOUT LIMITATIONS • Platforms that resize or re-encode photos may destroy hidden data. Use direct sharing or "send as file." • Capacity depends on image resolution — larger photos carry more data. • Steganography hides the existence of a message. Encryption protects its content. Phasm gives you both.

Discover what lies beneath the surface of your digital images. StegInsight is a multi-platform tool for privacy enthusiasts and security-minded users to analyze and use steganography: hide or reveal text inside images. Key Features • LSB Steganography — Embed or extract hidden text using Least Significant Bit (LSB) encoding in pixel data. Supports UTF-8 text with a clear, consistent protocol. • LSB Bit-Plane Visualization — View the LSB layer of the red, green, and blue channels as grayscale images. Random noise suggests a normal image; regular patterns may indicate hidden LSB data. • Trailing Data Detection — Scan for data appended after the end of image files (EOF). See byte count, hex preview, and decoded text when the trailing data is valid UTF-8. Supports JPEG and PNG. • Dual Embedding Modes — Hide text in pixel LSBs or append it after the file’s logical end (EOF) for JPEG/PNG. Export results as PNG or save back to the photo library (iOS) or file. • Cross-Platform — Same core engine on iPhone, iPad, and Mac with a single, clean interface. • Learn — Built-in short guide to steganography, LSB and EOF concepts, and how to spot hidden content. Whether you’re learning how steganography works or checking whether an image carries hidden data, StegInsight gives you the tools to look under the surface.
