The widespread dissemination and consumption of digital multimedia data is a result of the appeal of multimedia content.
Making sure that media content is used by authorized users for its intended purpose is becoming a problem of paramount relevance for both governmental security and commercial applications as a result of how simple it is today for people to alter and repackage digital content.
In order to protect the sensitive nature of multimedia data as well as its commercial value after the content has been delivered to a recipient, a class of multimedia forensic technologies known as "digital fingerprinting" is used to track and identify entities engaged in the illegal manipulation and unauthorized use of multimedia content.
This book highlights the most recent advancements in this subject and covers the critical aspects of research in this developing technology. It covers the difficulties that could arise while enforcing usage policies and looks into how to develop fingerprints that can withstand new families of multiuser assaults that might be launched against media fingerprints. It also defines the framework for multimedia fingerprinting.
The debate in the book gives readers a more comprehensive understanding of the development of the fledgling area of multimedia forensics by highlighting difficult issues as well as potential future directions.
