Data hiding has been proposed as an enabling technology for securing multimedia communication. This book publishes both original and archival research results from these emerging fields. It contains a section on forensic image analysis for crime prevention.
This second issue in the LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and Multimedia Security contains five papers dealing with a wide range of topics related to multimedia security. Coverage includes an introduction to Fingercasting, which allows joint fingerprinting and decryption of broadcast messages; a presentation on estimation attack on content-based video fingerprinting; and a survey on various blind and robust watermarking schemes for 3D shapes.
Since the mid 1990s, data hiding has been proposed as an enabling technology for securing multimedia communication and is now used in various applications including broadcast monitoring, movie fingerprinting, steganography, video indexing and retrieval and image authentication. Data hiding and cryptographic techniques are often combined to complement each other, thus triggering the development of a new research field of multimedia security. Besides, two related disciplines, steganalysis and data forensics, are increasingly attracting researchers and becoming another new research field of multimedia security. This journal, LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and Multimedia Security, aims to be a forum for all researchers in these emerging fields, publishing both original and archival research results. The six papers included in this issue deal with watermarking security, perceptual image hashing, infrared hiding, steganography and steganalysis.
This inaugural issue of the LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and Multimedia Security contains five papers dealing with a wide range of topics related to multimedia security, from a survey of problems related to watermark security to an introduction to the concept of Personal Entertainment Domains (PED) in Digital Rights Management (DRM) schemes.

This journal, LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and Multimedia Security, aims to be a forum for all researchers in these emerging fields, publishing both original and archival research results. The 7 papers included in this issue deal with the following topics: protection of digital videos, secure watermarking, tamper detection, and steganography.
LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and Multimedia Security provides a forum for all researchers in these emerging fields, publishing both original and archival research results. This third issue covers steganography and digital watermarking.

This journal, LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and Multimedia Security, aims to be a forum for all researchers in these emerging fields, publishing both original and archival research results. This issue consists mainly of a special section on content protection and forensics including four papers. The additional paper deals with histogram-based image hashing for searching content-preserving copies.

This special issue contains five selected papers that were presented at the Workshop on Pattern Recognition for IT Security, held in Darmstadt, Germany, in September 2010, in conjunction with the 32nd Annual Symposium of the German Association for Pattern Recognition, DAGM 2010. It demonstrates the broad range of security-related topics that utilize graphical data. The contributions explore the security and reliability of biometric data, the power of machine learning methods to differentiate forged images from originals, the effectiveness of modern watermark embedding schemes and the use of information fusion in steganalysis.
th It is our great pleasure to present this volume of the proceedings of the 10 edition of Information Hiding (IH 2008). The conference was held in Santa Barbara - the Ame- can Riviera, California, USA, during May 19–21, 2008. It was organized by three Santa Barbarans on fire, from both industry (Mayachitra) and academia (UCSB). Over the years, Information Hiding (IH) has established itself as a premier forum for presenting research covering various aspects of information hiding. Continuing the tradition, this year, we provide a balanced program including topics such as anonymity and privacy, forensics, steganography, watermarking, fingerprinting, other hiding domains, and novel applications. We received a total of 64 papers from all over the globe, and would like to take this opportunity to thank all the authors who submitted their paper to IH 2008 and thus contributed to the consolidation of the reputation of the conference. The papers were refereed by at least three revi- ers who provided detailed comments, which was followed by discussion amongst the Program Committee members. Only 25 papers were selected for presentation. This rigorous review process will certainly strengthen Information Hiding’s po- tion as the top forum of our community.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 11th International Workshop on Information Hiding, IH 2009, held in Darmstadt, Germany, in June 2009. The 19 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on steganography, steganalysis, watermarking, fingerprinting, hiding in unusual content, novel applications and forensics.
