Old school – hide files in bmp solution (open source)
There is quite old project – last release in 2002 (wow 7 years ago) – available on Source Forge named Hide In Picture that is still available for download in our days.
The application is pretty simple and allows you to hide (password protected) files in BMP files. As similar commercial it performs these tasks well for small sized files. If you want to hide larger files – think about a different solution!
Another disadvantage is that you need to have to software installed on all the computers where you want to hide – unhide files.
A big advance is the project age itself. It is an old tool and no one might think that is still in use (come on – is a 7 years old release) and the fact that is free and open source.
Soon we will build a comparison for hiding files products and disregarding its age Hide In Picture is still a strong competitor.
