A method for embedding data into a media signal receives a media signal, divides the media signal into blocks of samples, and calculates a function of the samples in the blocks, including transformations of samples in the blocks to corresponding block values. A processor uses the block value to determine a factor for samples in the blocks to be multiplied by the samples so that when a data embedding function is evaluated for the block, an output of the data embedding function corresponds to a data value representing desired digital data embedded in the block. A compatible decoder extracts this embedded data from the media signal. The decoder divides the media signal into blocks of samples and calculates a function of the samples in the blocks, including transformations of samples in the blocks to corresponding block values. A processor processes the block value to evaluate a data embedding function to determine digital data embedded in the block.

Mobile device assisted secure computer network communications embodiments are presented that employ a mobile device (e.g., a mobile phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), and the like) to assist in user authentication. In general, this is accomplished by having a user enter a password into a client computer which is in contact with a server associated with a secure Web site. This password is integrated with a secret value, which is generated in real time by the mobile device. The secret value is bound to both the mobile device's hardware and the secure Web site being accessed, such that it is unique to both. In this way, a different secret value is generated for each secure Web site accessed, and another user cannot impersonate the user and log into a secure Web site unless he or she knows the password and possesses the user's mobile device simultaneously.

An exemplary optimistic protocol for a two-party transaction includes a setup sub-protocol that includes an authorized Diffie-Hellman key agreement, an exchange sub-protocol that includes sending a certificate from a sending party to a receiving party and sending a receipt from the receiving party to the sending party and a dispute sub-protocol that includes a dispute resolution mechanism for resolving disputes between the sending party and the receiving party due to sending of an invalid certificate, due to sending an invalid receipt, or due to abortion of the exchange sub-protocol. Other exemplary methods, systems, etc., are also disclosed.

Methods of embedding and detecting watermarks in video use temporal analysis to compute temporal components of video from which the watermarks are embedded and detected. Temporal analysis, such as a temporal wavelet, is used to compute representations of static and dynamic portions of the video. For embedding, watermarks are computed from and/or adapted to the temporal components. For detecting, temporal properties are exploited to detect watermarks in the static and/or dynamic components. Temporal analysis also enables plural watermarks to be embedded at different levels of temporal resolution.

Systems and methods provide a content encryption schema for integrating digital rights management (DRM) in a multicast/broadcast encryption system. In one implementation, an exemplary integrated key schema provides content encryption keys that can be employed by a multicast or broadcast process, while providing DRM protection of recorded multicast content via a single DRM decryption secret. The integrated key schema provides high security and allows encrypted multicast content to be saved directly to local files. A license server can efficiently manage and generate DRM keys to be delivered to clients because only a single key needs to be delivered per license to a client. The integrated key schema can be applied together with conventional broadcast or multicast encryption techniques.

Key management is performed to generate a single key allowing of the decoding of all authorized levels of a plurality of access types within a scalable codestream. An access node set is derived from sets representing access types having hierarchies representable by fully ordered sets, such as resolution and layer levels, and hierarchies representable by partially ordered sets, such as tile and precinct levels. The access node set derived is a partially ordered set representing the combinations of levels of the access types included within the codestream. A hierarchical key management system is applied to the access node set to assign a key to each of the access nodes, generate content encryption keys, and encrypt the codestream. A client receiving the codestream, access node set, and other public information uses the key to derive additional keys to decrypt the codestream.

Exemplary generic file storage for scalable media is described. In one implementation, stored scalable media streams are related as nodes of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) in which directed edges between the nodes describe relationships between scalable media streams. Many different presentations of a media content can be delivered from a DAG storage file. Data space is reduced because different presentations can avail of the same sub-trees in the DAG. In one implementation, exemplary DAG storage files for scalable media have an information structure that allows the DAG file to self-tailor and/or allocate the scalabilities of the media content presentations it is capable of delivering in order to suit the characteristics of a requesting entity.

Systems and methods for secure multimedia authentication with discrete level tamper localization are described. In these aspects, the term “discrete” means that tamper localization is at the pixel level with respect to an image or video data, or at the sample level with respect to audio data. More particularly, and in one aspect, multimedia is evaluated to determine authenticity of the multimedia. This evaluation is based on data block(s). Responsive to determining that the multimedia is not authentic, a tampered portion of the multimedia is localized by addressing each respective pixel or sample of the tampered portion.

A technique for hiding of data, including watermarks, in human-perceptible sounds, that is, audio host data, is disclosed. In one embodiment a method comprises three steps. In the first step, data to be embedded is inputted. In the case of a watermark, this data is a unique signature, and may be a pseudo-noise (PN) code. In the case of hidden data to be embedded in the host data, this data is the hidden data itself, or the hidden data as spread against the frequency spectrum by a pseudo-noise (PN) code. In the second step, the inputted data is embedded within the host data, in accordance with a perceptual mask of the host data. The perceptual mask determines the optimal locations within the host data to insert the inputted data. In the case of sounds, these optimal locations are determined by reference to the human auditory system. In the third step, the host data, with the embedded data, is further masked by a non-frequency mask. In the case of audio data, the non-frequency mask is a temporal mask.
