摘要:
In an information distribution processing system having a plurality of information processing apparatuses connected through a network, at least one of the plurality of information processing apparatuses can acquire distribution information to which is added first additional information as an electronic watermark using a first adding method, and second additional information as an electronic watermark using a second adding method. An extraction unit extracts the first additional information using the first adding method, and an identification unit identifies an information processing apparatus that is able to extract the second additional information, based on the first additional information.

An image verification system includes an imaging device and a first image verification device. The imaging device has an image generating unit which generates image data, and a first verification data generating unit which generates first verification data using the image data and common information. In the first image verification device, a first verification unit verifies whether or not the image data is modified using the image data, the first verification data, and the common information. If it is verified by the first verification unit the image data is not modified, an embedding unit embeds watermark data to detect a modified portion of the image data in order to generate watermarked image data. A second verification data generating unit generates second verification data using the watermarked image data and secret information.

An image verification system includes an image input apparatus, image verification apparatus, and database apparatus. The image input apparatus generates verification information for image data by using a private key and adds the verification information and predetermined information unique to the image input apparatus to the image data. The image verification apparatus verifies that the image data has been altered or not by using the verification information and a public key corresponding to the private key. The database apparatus stores the public key in association with the predetermined information in the a storage unit and provides the public key to the image verification apparatus.

The invention generates moving image information obtained by compositing a moving image of a user and objects selected by the user, and provides the generated moving image information to the user. For instance, when the user has inserted a coin or coins into a device, a select menu of pre-stored stories is displayed, and the user selects one story from the menu. Then, the user selects a desired background scene and feature player in that story to determine pre-stored objects. After that, an image of the user is sensed, and is stored as a moving image object. The moving image object is then composited with the previously selected objects according to MPEG 4 to generate single stream information. The generated moving image information is then delivered to the user.

To provide a device capable of determining uniquely the direction of rotation applied to an image and extracting digital watermark information correctly even in the case where a registration signal having a symmetric axis is embedded. A device for enabling digital watermark information to be extracted from image data having the digital watermark information embedded therein in such a manner that it can hardly be perceived by human eyes, in which processing for extracting rotation information and position information from the image data is performed plural times for rotation angles different from one another. For extracted position and rotation information, confidence coefficients indicating accuracy thereof are calculated. The position and rotation angle at which the digital watermark information is embedded are determined based on the confidence coefficients.

Disclosed is an electronic watermark method, used for a network, comprising a plurality of entities, wherein provided weparately are an entity for embedding an electronic watermark in encrypted data that are exchanged by said plurality of entities, and an entity for performing an encryption process and a corresponding decryption process.
摘要:
In a cryptosystem which performs encryption/deciphering of communication text using k bits of cryptographically secure pseudo-random numbers as the block cipher key thereof, the block cipher key is updated each time j=k/m bits of new pseudo-random numbers are generated, with the j·m=k bits of pseudo-random numbers created by combining the j·(m−1) bits within the k bits of the present key and the newly generated j bits, serving as a new key, thereby shortening the updating cycle and improving the safety. Also, by sending the number of times of generation of pseudo-random numbers along with the encrypted communication text from the sending side, and by the receiving side using from the sequentially generated pseudo-random numbers, pseudo-random numbers generated after the received number of times of generation as the new key, deciphering can be performed regardless of the order to reception, in the event that a plurality of cipher texts are sequentially sent while updating the encryption key.
