Ultrasonic Data Transmission And Steganography, Hunter Young Mar 2016

Ultrasonic Data Transmission And Steganography, Hunter Young

KSU Journey Honors College Capstones and Theses

This project discusses the feasibility of using ultrasound to transmit data between computer systems, particularly computer systems that have been intentionally cut off from traditional networks for increased security. The goal of this project is to provide a synthesis of the current research that has been done into the use of ultrasonic data transmission, and to conduct a series of tests determining the validity of certain claims made in regards to ultrasonic data transmission within the information security community. All research, experiments, results, and inferences have been discussed in the context of how they relate to the realm of information …


Ultrasonic Data Steganography, Alexander Orosz Edwards Mar 2016

Ultrasonic Data Steganography, Alexander Orosz Edwards

KSU Journey Honors College Capstones and Theses

What started off as a question on the possibly of data transmission via sound above the level of human hearing evolved into a project exploring the possibility of ultrasonic data infiltration and exfiltration in an information security context. It is well known that sound can be used to transmit data as this can be seen in many old technologies, most notably and simply DTMF tones for phone networks. But what if the sound used to transmit signals was in in the ultrasonic range? It would go generally unnoticed to anyone not looking for it with tools such as a spectrum …
