Abstract
A computer system, method, and computer readable product are provided for managing passwords using steganography. In various embodiments, a computing system provides a password manager that a user provides a password to. The user then selects a service for which credentials will be generated or stored, and an image on the user's device that will be used to steganographically store the credentials. The computing system then generates a steganographic image that includes the credentials and stores that image with the other images on the user's device.
