N2 - Steganography is the process of hiding data inside audio, video, and image sources using various encoding methods. This paper presents a novel steganography algorithm that hides files in images using a combination of strong symmetric AES encryption, random pixel selection, and encoding in least-significant bits. The algorithm is implemented in Python 3 and made publicly available as part of a steganography tool, BPStegano. An evaluation using five steganalysis techniques shows that the new algorithm is effective and secure.
