README | Invalid Terminology #2

Description

@TotallyNotAHaxxer

As mentioned in the comment ( not sure why my pull request did not go down ) I will go ahead and restate it.

Per our contact

The terminology for steganography was incorrect. The DroneXtract toolkit does not allow you to inject, conceal, or insert data using other data. Steganography is typically like injecting a secret message into an image. The framework here actually extracts metadata from the file more than it does inject anything. To highlight the section, its shown below.

The two sections give the area I am talking about and what I personally suggest changing it to.

What I personally recommend adding

I highly suggest that you make this section - metadata extraction instead of using steganography. The reason for this is that when it comes down to SEO, if you end up using steganography and it gets thrown onto a list or even generally someone sees it pop up under steganography then it can become problematic and confusing for the person running the tool. Per our conversation as well, the definition.

~ "Steganography is the practice of concealing information within another message or physical object to avoid detection."

In offensive and defensive terms as well, generally speaking, it's just hiding data and concealing data inside of visible data or other messages. For example, injecting a serial communication network log with a specific key by messing with the timestamps through timestamp injection. Read more about timestamp injection here if you are looking for an example of steganography -- https://docs.napatech.com/r/Reference-Documentation/Time-Stamp-Injection

you can also look into image steganography and injection!

The following might be a good resourceful template!

### Metadata Extraction

The DroneXtract tool allows users to extract unique information and metadata out of specific file formats and if really needed can also export it into other data formats!
