High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! When two entities are communicating with each other, and they do not want a third party to listen to their communication, then they want to pass on their message in such a way that no body else could understand their message. This is known as communicating in a secure manner or secure communication. Secure communication includes means by which people can share information with varying degrees of certainty that third parties cannot know what was said. Other than communication spoken face to face out of possibility of listening, it is probably safe to say that no communication is guaranteed secure in this sense, although practical limitations such as legislation, resources, technical issues (interception and encryption), and the sheer volume of communication are limiting factors to surveillance. The purpose of this article is to describe the various means by which security is sought and compromised, the differing kinds of security possible, and the current means and their degree of security readily available.

Printer Steganography: Printer Steganography, Steganography, Printer (Computing), Laser Printer, Xerox, Forgery, Watermark

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Printer steganography is a type of steganography produced by color printers, including HP, Xerox and Epson brand color laser printers, where tiny yellow dots are added to each page. The dots are barely visible and contain encoded printer serial numbers, as well as date and time stamps. Color laser printers appear to be the type mostly involved, the measure being brought in during the 1990s by companies such as Xerox seeking to reassure governments that their printers would not be used for the purposes of forgery. The identification is by means of a watermark, often using yellow-on-white, embedded in the printout of each page, and in conjunction with other information can be used to identify the printer which was used to print any document originally produced on a wide range of popular printers. It may be actual text, or a repeated pattern of dots throughout the page, more easily visible under blue light or with a magnifying glass, and is intended to be very difficult to notice with the naked eye.

Information Hiding: Steganography, Obfuscated Code, Computer Science, Interface (computer science), Encapsulation (object- oriented programming), Inheritance ... programming), Liskov Substitution Principle.

Information hiding in computer science is the principle of segregation of design decisions in a computer program that are most likely to change, thus protecting other parts of the program from extensive modification if the design decision is changed. The protection involves providing a stable interface which protects the remainder of the program from the implementation (the details that are most likely to change).

Steganography in Digital Media: Principles, Algorithms, and Applications

Steganography, the art of hiding of information in apparently innocuous objects or images, is a field with a rich heritage, and an area of rapid current development. This clear, self-contained guide shows you how to understand the building blocks of covert communication in digital media files and how to apply the techniques in practice, including those of steganalysis, the detection of steganography. Assuming only a basic knowledge in calculus and statistics, the book blends the various strands of steganography, including information theory, coding, signal estimation and detection, and statistical signal processing. Experiments on real media files demonstrate the performance of the techniques in real life, and most techniques are supplied with pseudo-code, making it easy to implement the algorithms. The book is ideal for students taking courses on steganography and information hiding, and is also a useful reference for engineers and practitioners working in media security and information assurance.

Digital Image Steganography: Concepts, Algorithms, and Applications

Steganography is the science of secret communication. It comes under the assumption that if the feature is visible, the point of attack is evident. This book investigates current state-of-the-art methods and provides a new and efficient approach to digital image steganography. It also establishes a robust steganographic system called Steganoflage. Steganoflage advocates an object-oriented approach in which skin-tone detected areas are selected for embedding where possible. The key issues in this book are: 1) a new image encryption method tailored to digital images and steganography/watermarking, 2) a new, efficient and real-time skin-tone detection algorithm and 3) a new embedding method using the RBGC, in the Wavelet domain. Each of these components is tested against relevant performance measurements. A series of interesting contemporary applications are shown. This book is dedicated to digital image steganography, and is the cream of three years of focused work, presented in such a way to be the ideal companion for researchers both beginners and professionals. The simplified presentation allows researchers and students from other disciplines to grasp its essentials.

Digital watermarking: Audio watermark detection, Steganography, Watermark, Copy attack, Watermark (data file), Pattern Recognition (novel), Cyberpunk, William Gibson

Digital watermarking is the process of possibly irreversibly embedding information into a digital signal. The signal may be audio, pictures or video, for example. If the signal is copied, then the information is also carried in the copy. In visible watermarking, the information is visible in the picture or video. Typically, the information is text or a logo which identifies the owner of the media. The image on the right has a visible watermark. When a television broadcaster adds its logo to the corner of transmitted video, this is also a visible watermark. In invisible watermarking, information is added as digital data to audio, picture or video, but it cannot be perceived as such although it is possible to detect the hidden information. An important application of invisible watermarking is to copyright protection systems, which are intended to prevent or deter unauthorized copying of digital media. Steganography is sometimes applied in digital watermarking, where two parties communicate a secret message embedded in the digital signal

Translucent Databases 2Nd Edition: Confusion, Misdirection, Randomness, Sharing, Authentication And Steganography To Defend Privacy

This is the second edition of the widely acclaimed book that redefined how to build databases that protect the user's information. Instead of trying to store sensitive data in a tightly guarded box, the book describes simpler, faster and more secure solutions that leave the user in control of personal information. The trick to building a translucent database is scrambling the personal information in a way that only the right person can recover it. The book describes how traditional and not-so-traditional techniques can create a database that can answer questions for the right person without holding any useful information that might be abused by an insider or an attacker who manages to slip inside the fold. The second edition includes updated versions of the original material and four new chapters that tackle problems like secure and anonymous voting. All of the chapters include detailed descriptions of the algorithms and many descriptions include working code.
