I’m a bit confused about the steps to mount the VeraCrypt volume. Did we cover how to find hidden data in images during our sessions?

This reminds me of a similar question we had about encrypted files. I think we had to use a specific password too, like sniffer@123.

No problem, I've dealt with similar cases before. I'll start by mounting the VeraCrypt volume, then use a tool like StegSolve to analyze any image files I find. I'm confident I can recover the secret code if it's hidden in an image.

Okay, I think I understand the steps here. First, I'll need to mount the VeraCrypt volume using the provided password. Then I'll need to search for any image files and see if I can find the secret code hidden within. Sounds like a good challenge!
