Steganography is the process of hiding a secret audio/video/text within a larger one in such a way that someone cannot know the presence or contents of the hidden audio/video/text. Steganography is, many times, confused with cryptography as both the techniques are used to secure information. The difference lies in the fact that steganography hides the data so that nothing appears out of ordinary while cryptography encrypts the text, making it difficult for an out sider to infer anything from it even if they do attain the encrypted text.
