Abstract

This chapter deals with the understanding of techniques that are used to create damage to the expert in an investigative process. The name used for these techniques is called anti-forensics, whose mission is to conceal, remove, alter evidence, or make inaccessible a cybercrime. These techniques aim to make the work of the slower expert or difficult to reach a conclusion; however, this chapter will explore some techniques used as measures to subvert digital evidence through anti-forensic measures.
