Abstract
Internet has caused an extraordinary increase in the transfer and sharing of digital data like text, videos, images, audio, etc. over it. However, with the advent of modern access technology, multimedia data is more prone to security risks as data can be modified or redistributed without prior permission. Chaotic encryption-based blind digital image watermarking technique applicable to both grayscale and colour images. Discrete cosine transform (DCT) is used before embedding the watermark in the host image. Arnold transform is used in addition to chaotic encryption to add double-layer security to the watermark. Three different variants of the proposed algorithm have been tested and analysed. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme is robust to most of the image processing operations like joint picture expert group compression, sharpening, cropping, and median filtering. To validate the efficiency of the proposed technique, the simulation results are compared with certain state-of-art techniques.
