Abstract

We discuss a JPEG2000 packet data based hashing scheme for robust image authentication. Motivated by attacks against the approach, key-dependency is added by means of employing a randomized wavelet packet scheme in the wavelet decomposition stage. Attacks can be prevented effectively employing key dependency but the parameters required for this approach lead to decreased compression robustness which has to be compensated by an decrease of the hash length (which of course reduces security).
