Abstract
Digital watermarking has been used widely for the purposes of copyright protection and copy deterrence for multimedia content. In a forensic watermarking architecture, a buyer-seller watermarking protocol can enable a seller to identify a traitor from a pirated copy, while preventing the seller from framing an innocent buyer. Existing schemes are inefficient in practice for their high bandwidth usage. This paper proposes a buyer-seller watermarking protocol that is efficient from the bandwidth usage point of view. First, multicast that is an efficient transport technology for one-to-many communication is exploited, which can reduce the bandwidth usage significantly. Second, symmetric encryption instead of public-key encryption is performed on the multimedia content, which also can reduce the complexity and communication cost.
