Gets Started!
You need to put yours secret files in a folder. And in the parent directory you can put the image.
Open a bash terminal. And change the directory to the secret folder parent.
Like in the image.
Compress the Secret Directory.
Use the rar command to compress the information. You must use a password to increase the security.
rar a out.rar mega-secret-files -hp
You can also use other compressed formats.
Like in the image.
Use Cat to Concatenate Both Files. or Type in Windows
The next step is concatenate both files with the command:
cat image.png out.rar > newimage.png
If you are using windows:
type image.png out.rar > newimage.png
BOOM! the picture with the hidden files is ready.
Let's Recover the Information.
To acces to the information you only need rename the extension of the image to rar. And then you can open with the archive manager.
Put the password.
Extract the information.
