Explanation

The correct answers are A and C. Image Hide is a steganography tool that conceals secret data within image files (e.g., BMP, JPEG) by subtly altering pixel values in a way imperceptible to the human eye. Snow.exe (Steganographic Nature Of Whitespace) hides messages by appending invisible whitespace characters (spaces and tabs) to the end of lines in text files. Stegbreak is incorrect because it is a steganalysis tool used to detect and break steganography-the opposite of hiding data. Anti-x is a general security/anti-malware tool and is not related to steganography.
