Digital Watermarking Security

Abstract

<p>As creative works (e.g. books, films, music, photographs) become increasingly available in digital formats in a highly connected world, it also becomes increasingly difficult to secure intellectual property rights. Digital watermarking is one potential technology to aid intellectual property owners in controlling and tracking the use of their works. Surveys the state of digital watermarking research and examines the attacks that the technology faces and how it fares against them. Digital watermarking is an inherently difficult design problem subject to many constraints. The technology currently faces an uphill battle to be secure against relatively simple attacks.</p><p><strong>Defence Science Journal, 2011, 61(5), pp.408-414</strong><strong><strong>, DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.14429/dsj.61.1176</strong></strong></p>
