Abstract: ABSTRACT This invention introduces EchoLock, a simple and secure system that allows people to hide secret messages inside both audio and image files. Unlike existing apps, which support only a few audio formats or work only with images, EchoLock works with all major audio formats and common image types. A special feature of EchoLock is its ability to check whether the file has been changed or tampered with after a message is hidden inside it. If someone edits, trims, compresses, or tries to modify the file in any way, EchoLock immediately detects it. This makes the system very useful for journalists, cybersecurity teams, intelligence officers, and anyone who needs to share sensitive information secretly and safely. EchoLock offers a modern, easy-to-use, and secure way to communicate without drawing attention.
