Covert channels are used for the secret transfer of information. Now a day’s covert channel it is aninteresting study area. A Covert channel can be used to pass a wicked message. The message can be any form such ascomputer virus, spy programs, terrorist messages etc. A Covert channel is defined as it is a way of abstracting theinformation and hiding the information, in such a way that the person who reads should not examine the hiddeninformation and transmits the data to the destination. A covert channel uses the different field to hide the data. In thispaper, we use the different network protocol of OSI model. This paper presents the basis for the development of a toolkitfor creating and exploiting hidden channels within the standard design of network communication protocols. The datacan be wicked software or virus that can be communicated through the unauthorized channel. This paper focuses on themethods of hiding and countermeasures.
