Abstract
This paper focuses on the initial definitions of data hiding and digital forensics followed by study of different data hiding techniques, their need, characteristics, parameters of evaluating those techniques and advantages. The ways of how to get the hidden data during investigation by computer forensic investigator are also discussed.
