A Segmentation-Driven Non-Blind DWT Watermarking Framework Ensuring Robustness, Transparency, and Security

Abstract - Due to advancement in network technology, digital data is very popular medium for communication but eased to duplication and manipulation. Digital watermarking is the process of embedding digital evidence (also called watermark) into another digital signal (also called cover image) to proof content authenticity and copy right protection. The performance of watermarking technique can be assessed using various parameters like MSE, PSNR, SSIM and NCC. In this paper, Non-blind watermarking technique is proposed in transform domain using scrambling techniques to make this method robust and secure. Key Words: Watermarking, frequency domain, MSE, PSNR, NCC.
