Stealth
Avoiding notice while moving or concealing a presence.
Overview
Stealth covers avoiding notice through concealment, quiet movement, unobtrusive behavior, and following someone discreetly. It may involve hiding completely or appearing unremarkable in a crowd. Surveillance conditions and an observer’s attention determine how demanding the attempt becomes.
