Abstract


Alexandros Zaharis, Adamantini I. Martini, Christos Ilioudis and Michael Rachavelias illustrate how it is possible to hide data in different file formats, in particular using flash technology that is now so prevalent on the internet. This article focuses on cases concerning abusive images of children that are exchanged through publicly accessible social networking web sites by hiding the images, and the legal issues and ramifications of this act.
