Explanation

Anti-forensics techniques are designed to prevent, mislead, or interfere with the incident handling process, affecting the collection, preservation, and identification phases of the forensic investigation process. These techniques include methods to erase, encrypt, or alter information, make data recovery difficult, hide data (e.g., steganography), or otherwise obstruct forensic analysis and investigation efforts. Anti-forensics can significantly challenge the efforts of incident responders and forensic investigators in establishing the facts of a security incident or crime.
