Data Hiding Changing the extension on a file. Embedding data in a graphic file or scanning a
document so that it becomes a graphic file. This would prevent the text within the document from being identified during a keyword search.
Using a compression utility to compress multiple files or documents into a single compound file (i.e. .zip file).
Encryption: using a utility such as TrueCrypt to create a hidden\encrypted volume on the hard drive.
