Intellectual Property Watch; Trade Secret Thief Hid Files In Digital Photo Of Sunset
"The criminal complaint alleges that on or about July 5, Zheng, an
engineer employed by General Electric, used an elaborate and
sophisticated means to remove electronic files containing GE’s trade
secrets involving its turbine technologies. Specifically, Zheng is
alleged to have used steganography to hide data files belonging to GE
into an innocuous looking digital picture of a sunset, and then to have
e-mailed the digital picture, which contained the stolen GE data files,
to Zheng’s e-mail account."
