Covert Channels (CISSP Free by Skillset.com)

[@valb4184]

Hi, thanks for sharing the video. Can you tell whats the difference between a Covert channel and Side channel.

I know this question is old now, but just for future readers:
In a covert channel, the sender and the receiver are intentionally participating in the communication.
A side channel has the sender unintentionally transfering information.
Also, the term "side channels" has more of a cryptographic background, while covert channels focus on information hiding.
