AIVD mole used steganography to distribute information

Steganography is a way of hiding information in a seemingly normal picture, which can then be included to distribute secrets through a seemingly normal website. The Moroccan mole that had managed to infiltrate the Dutch intelligence agency AIVD and probably tipped off the terrorist Hofstad Group apparently used this technology to distribute information stolen from the AIVD. GeenStijl has an extensive debate on this subject, including links to the relevant software tools for amateur spooks who want to do a bit of digging themselves.
