Cache

cacher = to hide

E.g.
Il est caché = he's hiding

A couple of interesting words using cache:
jouer à cache-cache = to play hide and seek
un cache-nez = a scarf (literally a "nose-hider")

And for people who like to hide secrets:
une cachotterie = a little secret
un cachottier = a secretive person, someone who has a (little) secret

And finally, Caché is the title of a 2005 movie by Michael Haneke starring Daniel Auteuil and Juliette Binoche, about a couple that sees their lives disturbed by a series of video tapes seemingly surveying the exterior of their home.
