1 INTRODUCTION
With the rapid develpment in the field of computer science, internet has reached to mass and is continuously gaining popularity due to which it has become very easy to share things such as images, videos, documents, etc. But this ease comes at the cost of information security. For these reasons and many others, digital image watermarking has emerged as the appropriate solution for these cases.
The image watermarking system consists of an embedder and a detector, as illustrated in Figure 1. The embedder takes two inputs. One is the payload or watermark, and the other is the cover work or the host image. The output of the embedder is typically transmitted or recorded. Later that work is presented as an input to the detector. Most detectors try to determine whether a payload is present, and if so, output the message encoded by it.
1.1 BASIC MODEL OF DIGITAL IMAGE WATERMARKING
The basic model of image watermarking consists of three parts as described in Figure 2, they are:
Embedding: In this process the watermark is embedded into the host image with a certain technique.
Attack: This is the insecure part of the watermarking life cycle as it comprises of either transfer of the image or the storage of the image. If in between this process the image is altered then it is termed as attack.
Detection: In this, detector detects the watermark from the watermarked image which is generated at the time of embedding phase. This part is also insecure if proper techniques are not applied to make it secure.
1.2 PROPERTIES OF DIGITAL IMAGE WATERMARKING
The main requirements for the watermark are as follows:
A) Robustness: The robustness is the ability of detecting the watermark after some signal proc...

apace spread across Europe. Watermarking can be measured as special techniques of steganography where one message is embedded in another and the two messages are related to each other. Digital watermarking is similar to watermarking technique which allows an individual to add exclusive rights notices or other verification messages to digital media. Image authentication’s one of the applications of digital watermarking, which is used for authenticating the digital images. A digital watermark is a kind
We are living in the era of information where billions of bits of data is created in every fraction of a second and with the advent of internet, creation and delivery of digital data (images, video and audio files, digital repositories, web publishing) has spread like fire. With this copying a digital data is easy and fast too so, issues like, copyright protection and proving ownership, arises this causes digital documents to be duplicated, modified and distributed easily. For this reason, researchers

solutions are especially of interest for such fields as distributed production processes and electronic commerce, since their producers provide only access control mechanisms to prevent misuse and theft of material. In all these aspects, multimedia systems are the one which plays a major role in data sending, retrieving and transferring process through different multimedia held devices. So the point of Intelligent multimedia security services came into existence in order to track what problem actually

Watermarking is a technology in which a hiding a digital data inside the host signal. Thus it will help to verifying the authority or integrity of the host signal. The traditional two party digital rights management system contains only owner and consumer. But it is insufficient to satisfy today’s business needs and content delivery. Hence, multiparty
2.1 Introduction Cryptography is an interesting field in the world of computer security. This has been boosted by the increase in computer attacks emanating from the Internet. With large and confidential data being transferred over the Internet, its security must be addressed. It is because of this that encryption techniques are continually evolving. With computer hackers being IT experts who are hungry to get at personal data on the Internet, IT security experts have also made sure that they come

network, security of such image data is important.This work proposes a novel scheme for the security of such images by the method of separable reversible data hiding in encrypted images. In the first phase, a content owner encrypts the original uncompressed image using an encryption key. Then, a data-hider may compress the least significant bits of the encrypted imageusing a data-hiding key to create a sparse space to accommodate some additionaldata.With an encrypted image containing additional data

Data stowing away in sound signs is increasing boundless significance for secure correspondence of data, for example, clandestine front line and managing an account exchanges by means of open sound

kept secret. This is achieved by hiding secret message behind another media such as image, audio and video. In image steganography, the message is hidden behind an image. The image into which a message is hidden is called a cover image and the result is stego-image. Two important properties that should be considered while designing a steganographic algorithm are undetectability and embedding capacity. The stego-image must be undetectable and it should embed more data. Steganography has various applications
