  1. Multimedia Security And Forensics CS525 Semester Project Spring 2006 Authentication of Digital Images Sarah Summers Sarah Wahl

  2. MotivationSeeing is believing … or is it?

  3. Easy to be deceived

  4. Goals • Identify image tampering methods. • Assess methods available for protecting images. • Assess image authentication techniques. • Identify directions for future work.

  5. Categories of Image Tampering • There are three main categories of image tampering: • Enhancing • Compositing • Copy/Move

  6. Enhancing • Changing the color of objects • Changing the weather conditions • Blurring out objects

  7. Compositing Combining two or more images to create a new image

  8. Copy-Move Copying regions of the original image and pasting into other areas. The yellow area has been copied and moved to conceal the truck.

  9. What can be done to protect digital images? • Watermarking • Fragile watermarks • Semi-fragile watermarks • Self-embedding watermarks • Digital cameras with watermarking capabilities • Digital Fingerprinting/Signatures • Digital cameras with fingerprinting capabilities

  10. Digital Watermarking • The basic concept of digital watermarking an image is that a low level signal is placed directly into the image data. • Any manipulation of the image will impact the watermark and subsequent retrieval of the watermark and examination of its condition will indicate if tampering has occurred.

  11. Fragile Watermarks • Fragile watermarks are designed to detect every possible change in pixel values . • Variety of Techniques but in most cases, the watermark is embedded in the least significant bit (LSB) of the image. • Advantages: Pick up all image manipulations – malicious and non-malicious • Disadvantages: Too sensitive

  12. Semi-Fragile Watermarks • They are robust, to a certain extent, and are less sensitive to pixel modifications. • Techniques: • Divide image into blocks and utilize bits from each block to calculate a spread spectrum noise like signal which is combined with DCT coefficients and inserted as a watermark. • Divide image into blocks, construct watermark in DCT domain from pseudo-random zero-mean unit variance Gaussian numbers, take the inverse DCT and insert into the image. • Advantage: less sensitive than fragile watermarks

  13. Self-Embedding • Tampered images result in lost information. The previous techniques will only detect and localize areas of interest when authentication is carried out. • Self-embedding allows tamper detection and recovery of missing information. • General concept is that the image is embedded in itself in an encrypted form. • Advantage: Potential for original data to be retrieved. • Disadvantage: Tampering with the image can remove blocks of the original image making retrieval of content impossible

  14. Digital Cameras with Watermarking Capabilities • Watermarking based on secret key, block ID and content. The image is divided into blocks and each block watermarked using a frequency based spread spectrum technique incorporating the secret key, block ID and block content. • Image of photographers iris is combined with the camera ID, the hash of the original image and other details specific to the camera.

  15. Digital Fingerprints/Signatures • Based on the concept of public key encryption. • Hashed version of image is encrypted using a private key. • Encrypted file provides a unique signature/fingerprint of the image which can be used to authenticate by decryption with public key. • Mainly used in transmission of images.

  16. Digital Cameras with Fingerprinting Capabilities • Epson Image Authentication System (IAS) • The IAS software in the camera instantly seals the captured images with an invisible digital fingerprint. • Verification of image is achieved by any PC with Image Authentication System software installed

  17. Authentication Techniques • Active Authentication • Rely on the presence of a watermark or fingerprint. • Require knowledge original image • Algorithm/key used to embed the watermark or fingerprint. • Passive Authentication • No requirement of knowledge of original image. • Does not rely of presence of watermark or fingerprint.

  18. Passive Authentication Techniques • Detecting Copy-Move • Detecting Traces of Re-sampling • Detecting Light Inconsistencies

  19. Exact Match Robust Match Copy-Move Detection Original Image Tampered Image

  20. Tampered Image PCA Detection Copy-Move Detection Original Image

  21. Re-sampling Detection Original Image Tampered Image Fourier Transform of unaltered region Periodic pattern in Fourier Transform of altered region

  22. Inconsistencies in Lighting Tampered Image Genuine Image

  23. Future Research • Development of a better self embedding technique. • Development of an all inclusive passive authentication technique.

  24. Conclusions • Digital image forgeries can be used to deceive the public and the authorities. • They are here to stay. • Until non destructible/ non removal digital watermarks are perfected, passive authentication will remain necessary. • Currently no single passive authentication technique can detect all types of digital forgeries.
