Concealment or hiding is obscuring something from view or rendering it inconspicuous, the opposite of exposure. A military term is CCD: camouflage, concealment and deception (looks the same as the surroundings, can not be seen, looks like something else, respectively); in a wider sense the other two are also forms of hiding. The objective of hiding is often to keep the presence of an object or person secret, but in other cases not the presence is a secret, but only the location.

More generally an object may be hidden from view, either purposely, or as a side effect; in this case the presence of the object is not necessarily a secret. Examples:

• clothing hiding the skin from view; see also modesty
• wall
• door of a cupboard
• window covering
