Cover and deception

In the context of general knowledge, "cover" refers to the tactics used to hide or obscure the true intentions or activities of an individual or organization. It often involves presenting a façade or alternative narrative to mislead observers. "Deception," on the other hand, is the act of deliberately misleading someone to believe something that is not true. While cover can serve as a protective layer, deception is the underlying intention to manipulate perception or understanding. Both tactics are commonly employed in various fields, including espionage, marketing, and even everyday interactions, to achieve specific goals without revealing the full truth.
