Obfuscation

Obfuscation is a way of making something complicated and hard to understand. It's like a code that only some people know how to read. For example, when a computer programmer writes something like a website or a computer game, they might use a bunch of really complicated code. But they don't want people to be able to easily figure out what the code does. So they'll use obfuscation to make it hard to read.
