<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><ul> <li>This unique book delves down into the capabilities of <i>hiding</i> and <i>obscuring</i> data object within the Windows Operating System. However, one of the most noticeable and credible features of this publication is, it takes the reader from the very basics and background of data hiding techniques, and run's on the reading-road to arrive at some of the more complex methodologies employed for concealing data object from the <i>human eye </i>and/or the <i>investigation</i>. As a practitioner in the Digital Age, I can see this book siting on the shelves of Cyber Security Professionals, and those working in the world of Digital Forensics - it is a recommended read, and is in my opinion a very valuable asset to those who are interested in the landscape of <i>unknown unknowns</i>. This is a book which may well help to discover more about that which is <i>not</i> in <i>immediate</i> view of the onlooker, and open up the mind to expand its imagination beyond its accepted limitations of <i>known knowns</i>. - John Walker, CSIRT/SOC/Cyber Threat Intelligence Specialist</li></ul> <ul> <li>Featured in <i>Digital Forensics Magazine</i>, February 2017</li></ul> <p>In the digital world, the need to protect online communications increase as the technology behind it evolves. There are many techniques currently available to encrypt and secure our communication channels.

It has several categorizations, and each type has its own techniques in hiding. Steganography has played a vital role in secret communication during wars since the dawn of history. In recent days, few computer users successfully manage to exploit their Windows(R) machine to conceal their private data. </p> <p>Businesses also have deep concerns about misusing data hiding techniques. Many employers are amazed at how easily their valuable information can get out of their company walls.
