So here's one idea I've had as a place to hide a channel: network video, in particular CU-SeeMe video streams. CU-SeeMe is a lowtech
That's an excellent idea. The only problem with using CU-SeeMe is that, due to the nature of the data being transferred, it is more important to keep up to date than to not lose data. I believe it uses UDP to do this. There would have to be some protection mechanism in the stego patches to tolerate high amounts of data loss - the obvious solution would be to loop the data, but that is easily detectable, and is not a guarantee that the data arrived safely. Setting up a connection outside of Cu-SeeMe attracts attention, especially if there was a correlation between what occurred on that connection and what occurred in the LOBs of the Cu-SeeMe connection. -- Abraham d'Anonymous (No relation to Alice)
