Herodotus (484-425 BC) tells how a message was passed to the Greeks about Xerses (520 - 465 B.C.) hostile intentions underneath the wax of a writing tablet, and describes a technique of dotting successive letters in a cover text with a secret ink. Many traditional digital forensics methodologies and frameworks do not attempt to discover Steganography. During the research for this publication, Steganalysis was carried out to detect the level of Steganography in use by analysing a large data set.
