Abstract

Digital watermark have been proposed as the means for copyright protection on network based digital image distribution framework. However, there are some problems in existing digital watermarking mechanism as the rightful ownership cannot be resolved by current watermarking schemes alone. Specially, some one can provide counterfeited watermark which can be performed on a watermarked image to allow multiple claims of rightful ownerships. Therefore, we can use undeniable verification scheme in the watermarking process. And using designated verifier proofing schemes, watermark can be verified by commitment methods. The confirmer of a watermark can sure that only the intended verifier can be convinced about the validity of the watermark.
