SecureIT - Data Security using Cryptography and Steganography

Demo: Youtube

Run in GitPod

• This is a Python based tool to encrypt files and important data into a very secure form.
• It uses Cryptography (RSA, AES and TripleDES) and Steganography (Image Steganography and Video Steganography)

Requirements (installable via pip)

• rsa
• pycrypto
• numpy
• imageio
• multipledispatch
• Pillow
• opencv-python
• pyDes

What I used?

1. pycrypto - for Cryptography based encryption - It is used to encrypt and decrypt data into secured unreadable form.
2. opencv2 - for Steganography - It is used for image and video manipulation. We used it for embedding encrypted data into images/videos.
3. rsa - for RSA based encryption - RSA is a asymmetric encryption method, used for encrypting data.

How to run the program?

1. Download this GitHub repository

   • Either Clone the repository

      git clone https://github.com/Kunal-Attri/Data-Security-using-Cryptography-and-Steganography.git
     

   • Or download and extract the zip archive of the repository.

2. Download & Install requirements

   • Ensure that you have Python 3 installed.
   • Open terminal in the Repository folder on your local machine.
   • Run the following command to install requirements.

      pip install -r requirements.txt
     

3. Run the Program

   python main.py
   

   Expected Interface:
   

4. Generate RSA Keys

   • If running first time, you need to generate RSA Keys.
   • Generate it using option no 5.

5. Ready to Secure data

   • Now, you can secure your data files into either images or videos.
