Abstract
The purpose of the study of the authors of this article are the two most popular network protocols of the network and transport level – TCP and IP, for the presence of the steganographic potential of their packets. The article describes and argues the choice of certain working tools. A study was made of possible ways of channel steganography in data packets of protocols. The argumentation is given for the choice of certain working tools. The implementation of the attachment of information was made. Described the feasibility of the application, developed software, and appropriate conclusions were made throughout the study.
