Computer crimes have become very complex in terms of investigation and prosecution. This is mainly because forensic investigations are based on artifacts left oncomputers and other digital devices. In recent times, perpetrators of computer crimesare getting abreast of the digital forensics dynamics hence, capacitated to use someanti-forensics measures and techniques to obfuscate the investigation processes.Incases where such techniques are employed, it becomes extremely difficult, expensive and time consuming to carry out an effective investigation. This might causea digital forensics expert to abandon the investigation in a pessimistic manner.ThisProject work serves to practically demonstrate how numerous anti-forensics can bedeployed by the criminals to derail the smooth processes of digital forensic investigation with main focus on data hiding and encryption techniques, later a comparativestudy of the effectiveness of some selected digital forensics tools in analyzing andreporting shreds of evidence will be conducted.
