UNCOVER is end-user-driven and responds to the real needs of Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) to detect hidden information in innocent looking data. Within UNCOVER, the partners are committed to push forward research within steganalysis and to substantially increase the technological autonomy of Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs) in the field of digital media steganalysis. The developed detection and investigation tools will be integrated into a flexible and user-friendly platform. End-users play a key role throughout the project cycle and regular feedback cycles with LEAs, forensics institutes and external stakeholders will ensure that the developed solutions can be integrated into the daily criminal investigation pipeline of LEAs.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101021687
