Stealth — Hiding Your Activities

Last updated: July 21, 2026 · 9:15 PM ET

Stealth is about maintaining a low profile and minimizing your exposure. The less visible you are, the less likely you are to attract attention.

Digital Stealth

• Use a separate device or USB for sensitive activities.
• Keep your activities contained within a secure OS (Tails/Whonix).
• Never save logs or history.
• Use encrypted messaging for all communications.
• Regularly clear browser data and cache.

Physical Stealth

• Maintain a normal routine — don't act suspiciously.
• Vary your patterns — don't visit the same places at the same times.
• Dress to blend in — avoid flashy or distinctive clothing.
• Be aware of surveillance cameras and avoid them when possible.

Operational Stealth

• Use pseudonyms and never reuse them across platforms.
• Use separate email addresses for different activities.
• Never discuss sensitive activities in public or unencrypted channels.
• Have a cover story for what you're doing.
