Sumario:Searching for the Higgs boson lies at the heart of the physics program of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The prospects for Higgs searches with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are reviewed. The most prominent Higgs final states predicted by the Standard Model and the MSSM are considered. This involves reviewing detector performance and physics analysis strategies. The latter includes defining data-driven approaches to background extraction.
