| My name is Markis Gardner and I currently live in China. 3 years ago I moved to China due to a terrible tragedy in my life. At that time I was studying under a marvelous professor, Dr. Pan at Georgia State University. I had high hopes to finally get a PhD (I failed to get a PhD in Mathematics at the University of Kentucky due to an extreme memory disorder I have) but thanks to Dr. Pan he said as long as I could research (I can definitely do that) and publish papers (I am trying to do that) he saw no reason why I could not get a PhD in Computer Science. Unfortunately I was a few classes away from a Masters in Computer Science (I was going part-time to pay the bills) when I left to go live in China. Unfortunately I do not have the money needed to continue my Masters and hopefully PhD in Computer Science - out-of-state tuition is beyond my means. But, I never wanted to give up my dream of publishing papers. I helped another professor (who no longer works there) publish one paper and I have been reading LOTS of papers trying to get ideas on what to write a paper on. Since I do not work with a professor now, I have to come up with topics on my own. Finally I came upon an idea after reading a paper that used my knowledge of Math, Computers and a simple idea from Chemistry (believe it or not) that gave me a brilliant but an also frightening idea if it was used the wrong way. I have always been a fan of the television series "Pretender", a guy, Jerod, who can become anyone and he finds out his ideas (simulations) are being used the wrong way. Unfortunately for me, my idea really only has one purpose, espionage. Why else would anyone want to hide a message or picture inside of another picture. My idea really would make the espionage undetectable. I have read many other ideas about hiding messages but nothing to the effect that I thought up. I was hoping to publish these 2 papers (one talking about hiding messages and the other about hiding pictures) and get enough recognition that I might be able to finish my Master's and PhD, however, I am afraid that with my idea it would make espionage child's play. I don't want to do anything that would harm national security. So, what would you do if you were in my shoes? If you knew 100% that your "idea" would make it impossible for even the best computers and cryptographers to spot this "new" espionage. I want to publish and get recognition but I also don't want to cause America or any other country harm. I really am looking for advice here as I do not know how to proceed. Since I am writing these papers on my own, it will take a long time for me to write, since I work and need to polish my English, (wish I was still in the University and get help) so I am hoping to get some guidance from you all. Even if I don't publish these due to National Security at least I will gain the "experience" necessary in writing papers on my own. That in itself will be worth the time it will take for me to write these 2 papers. Of course, people might think well, if you have an idea that would hide the espionage then they could discover it using advanced computers. That is where the idea from Chemistry comes in (I don't want to say what that idea is, as it is the heart of this idea) but it would completely hide the espionage. Thanks, Markis |

I believe it's currently thought that steganography (which includes hiding pictures or messages in pictures, as you say) is already being used by terrorists (and probably others) trying to escape detection by the government. It sounds like your idea, whatever it is, is some sort of steganographic technique. It may have already been discovered? There are books on amazon.com about the subject, which I am admittedly not an expert on. Also, I'm doubtful as to how you could make sure that your idea is 100% secure. Organizations like the NSA are supposed to be fantastic at breaching the security of pretty much anyone. I read an article recently on the NSA's red team, but I can't find it offhand. Finally, here's a more or less theoretical concern: if you have some sort of technique for disguising a message so well that no one can detect it, how will your intended recipient detect it? It all boils down to the idea of private keys; if your message is so well-hidden that no one can find it without knowing some algorithm for extracting the message, that's great; but then how do you transmit that algorithm to your recipient without THAT being detected? I tend to suspect that there aren't really any major breakthroughs to be made in the field of steganography, since it all simply boils down to finding a way to transmit a decryption algorithm securely. I'm certainly not an expert on cryptography or steganography though; these are just my thoughts. -Phil |

WHOSE national security o please like as if you have even told us where you are a citizen of you only told us where you go to school and with a name like spaceman!!!!! normal team loyalty and insults against other teams, I get, > > So, what would you do if you were in my shoes? id' stop trolling here, mr contractor of nsa I don't get why the niners spend huge amounts of time talking about the doll fins in terms of such intense hate solve that riddle then we will talk >*If you knew 100% that > your "idea" would make it impossible for even the best computers and > cryptographers to spot this "new" espionage. was the parcells on the niners >*I want to publish and > get recognition but I also don't want to cause America or any other > country harm. really? what's your citizenship mr spaceman have you seen the ads for this show this new show,Flashpoint? >*I really am looking for advice here as I do not know > how to proceed. *Since I am writing these papers on my own, it will > take a long time for me to write, since I work and need to polish my > English, (wish I was still in the University and get help) so I am > hoping to get some guidance from you all. * o see so you ARE NOT a us citizen and you don't really give a crap about US security Enrico Colantoni is in this new show Flashpoint, I've always thought he was a great actor >Even if I don't publish > these due to National Security at least I will gain the "experience" > necessary in writing papers on my own. * you got into college into a phd program but have no experience in publishing papers. o please >That in itself will be worth > the time it will take for me to write these 2 papers. > > Of course, people might think well, if you have an idea that would > hide the espionage then they could discover it using advanced > computers. *That is where the idea from Chemistry comes in (I don't > want to say what that idea is, as it is the heart of this idea) but it > would completely hide the espionage. > > o just go right ahead But for some reason I could swear the ads for Flashpoint show Antonin Scalia too mk5000 "cmon darling its alright to show me you don't need to be lonely once you start to open your heart"--ben lee, we're all in this together |
