Hide Secrets
Inside Ordinary Images.
Embed AES-256-GCM encrypted messages inside any photo. Share it anywhere. The image looks completely ordinary. Only City of Hats Premium can decrypt what's inside.
Create a GhostFrame → PREMIUMDiscreet Transport. Proven Encryption.
GhostFrame combines image steganography with AES-256-GCM encryption and a hybrid token architecture — designed to remain intact across common image-sharing platforms.
AES-256-GCM Encryption
Every message is encrypted client-side with AES-256-GCM before embedding. The encryption key is derived locally and never touches our servers.
AES-256-GCMHybrid Token Architecture
A small token is embedded in the image pixels. The encrypted payload is stored separately on our servers. This hybrid approach remains intact across WhatsApp, LINE, and other image-sharing platforms.
STEGANOGRAPHYBurn-After-Read Lifecycle
Set your GhostFrame to self-destruct after first read, after a set number of retrievals, on a time delay, or after a countdown timer. Once burned, the payload is permanently deleted.
EPHEMERALAccess Control
Choose who can decrypt: anyone with City of Hats Premium, or lock it to a specific Hat identity. Without the right permissions, the image looks like any ordinary photo.
RECIPIENT-LOCKEDFour Steps to Invisible Communication
From import to decode — the entire process happens client-side. Your plaintext never touches our servers.
Import Image
Pick any photo from your camera roll, Google Photos, or local files. Any standard image format works.
Compose & Encrypt
Write your secret message. AES-256-GCM encrypts it client-side. Set lifecycle rules — burn-after-read, time-lock, auto-destroy.
Embed & Share
The encrypted token is embedded into the image pixels. Share the image normally — email, Dropbox, WhatsApp, anywhere.
Decode & Burn
The recipient imports the image into City of Hats. The token retrieves and decrypts the message. Then it's gone.
🖼️ Image Pixel Layer
A small retrieval token — not the message itself — is embedded via LSB steganography. The image carries only the key to unlock, not the content.
☁️ Server-Side Vault
The full AES-256-GCM encrypted payload lives here with lifecycle rules. Zero-knowledge — we cannot read or access the content.
Who Uses GhostFrame?
When the channel itself needs to be invisible — not just encrypted.
Journalists & Sources
Receive sensitive documents and tipoffs hidden inside ordinary photos. No metadata trail, no suspicious file names — just a family photo that happens to contain classified information.
Financial Institutions
Share transaction approvals, compliance alerts, and sensitive financial data through images that look routine. Audit-ready with burn-after-read timers.
Legal Teams
Exchange privileged communications inside image attachments. Attorney-client privilege protected by steganography and AES-256-GCM — invisible to discovery tools.
High-Sensitivity Environments
Share confidential information through images in environments where standard encrypted channels draw attention. GhostFrame provides a discreet transport layer for sensitive operations.
Healthcare
Share HIPAA-sensitive patient data between practitioners without exposing it in email bodies or chat logs. Burn-after-read ensures zero retention.
Enterprise Security Teams
Distribute vulnerability disclosures, breach reports, and incident response instructions inside images. No one knows the image contains critical security data.
