Who: Christopher Faulkner is CEO and founder of C I Host, the largest privately held Web hosting firm, serving 220,000 clients in 192 countries.

What: British, United States authorities, businesses and citizens should be aware that terrorists are suspected of communicating in hidden "steganography." Faulkner explains the technology and the potential threats.

Topics: Sports chat, entertainment sites, eBay sites could be used

The U.S. suspected Osama bin Laden used the technique in 2001

British authorities are stepping up detection of hidden messages. Using steganography terrorist groups can use a "container message" such as an online photograph. By altering the R/G/B color palette of the image, the groups can insert tiny bits of a hidden message into each pixel. Then using a decoder key sent to each terrorist organization member they can decide the pixels to reveal the message. The images can be uploaded to any web site and are undetectable to the human eye.

Show topics include:

· Terrorists Hide Secrets in eBay Photos

· Hiding Terrorist Organization Blueprints in MP3 Music Files

· Your Photo Might Contact Hidden Terrorists Conversations

· Osama Bin Laden Communicates Through *YOUR* Family Photos

Where: C I Host is centrally located and accessible to both coasts via the DFW Airport, just a few miles away. Faulkner is available for in-studio interviews, given advance notice. Faulkner can also demonstrate steganography LIVE showing hidden messages within images or audio.
