A Review Paper Based on Image Security Using Watermarking

Abstract

This paper reviews the performance analysis based on image security for digital watermarked images using different techniques in transform domains. Digital watermarking is a technique of embedding data like text or image which is called watermark into digital data. It can be done by using different methods depending upon the digital data. It is examined that the most robust method in providing the security for watermarked images can be achieved by combining DWT with SVD when compared to other methods. Though DWT itself maintains good authenticity, when SVD is added to DWT, it increases the robustness in extracting watermark image. Firstly, DWT is applied to the original image and then SVD is applied to the resultant of DWT image. The steps involved in the algorithm to embed and extract the watermark are explained. Finally, the performance analysis of DWT and DWT with SVD is compared and quality of the image is examined.
