A simple 'hackerman.jpg' is the file we start out with.  Checking strings, we see there is a hidden string messages in the picture of '5634275d694f8665957746c9619132f0'. Let's drop that into Crack Station and see what pops out.

 
$ strings hackerman.jpg
    
    o3n=
    2<co;
    5634275d694f8665957746c9619132f0

Let's see if 'almost' will let us run steghide extract.  Sure enough! Now we have a 'hackerman.txt' file.

 
 $ steghide extract -sf hackerman.jpg 
   Enter passphrase: almost
   wrote extracted data to "hackerman.txt".
   
   $ cat hackerman.txt 
   SFRCezN2MWxfYzBycH0=

   $ echo 'SFRCezN2MWxfYzBycH0=' | base64 -d

Easiest challenge yet!  Does that make me "Hackerman" or "Elite"?
