Description
Summary:Modern linguistic steganography faces the fundamental challenge of balancing embedding capacity with detection resistance, particularly against advanced AI-based steganalysis. This paper presents DeepStego, a novel steganographic system leveraging GPT-4-omni’s language modeling capabilities for secure information hiding in text. Our approach combines dynamic synonym generation with semantic-aware embedding to achieve superior detection resistance while maintaining text naturalness. Through comprehensive experimentation, DeepStego demonstrates significantly lower detection rates compared to existing methods across multiple state-of-the-art steganalysis techniques. DeepStego supports higher embedding capacities while maintaining strong detection resistance and semantic coherence. The system shows superior scalability compared to existing methods. Our evaluation demonstrates perfect message recovery accuracy and significant improvements in text quality preservation compared to competing approaches. These results establish DeepStego as a significant advancement in practical steganographic applications, particularly suitable for scenarios requiring secure covert communication with high embedding capacity.
