The goal of watermarking or steganography is not to restrict access to the original image, to ensure that embedded data remain recoverable. Digital watermarking is a technique providing embedded secure information in images, digital watermarking is the process of inserting data into an image in a way that it can be used to make an assertion about the image. But the proposed system studies a comprehensive approach of embedding secret information inside the video. A hybrid video steganographic scheme based on Framelet transform (FT) with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is introduced. The main purpose of using PCA is to reduce correlation among wavelet coefficients from wavelet decomposition of each video frame. Using this decomposition, the secret message can be dispersed into the uncorrelated coefficients. Framelet transform helps to decompose video file into several frames. The secret message is embedded inside the principal components of low frequency wavelet coefficients. Achieving high bit rate data embedding is the main task. The proposed system is robust against numerous attacks like geometric attack, filtering, contrast adjustment. After embedding the secret information , (2,2_VSSS) as Visual cryptographic encryption is implemented to maintain the secrecy of this information against hackers.The main aim of this study is to obtain impercibility which is the human eye may not be able to detect differences between the original video and reconstructed image. Even after embedding, the quality of the stego image is good, which is proved by achieving better a PSNR value, and the stego image does not give much variation irrespective of different imaging conditions in the proposed VDWT mechanism. The proposed method achieves high PSNR than the existing methods, and nominal computational time is achieved for retrieving the secret information

This paper analyzes the deficiency of P2DR security model, and proposes a kind of new active dynamic security model AD-RPPDRRM, in which risk analysis, management and recovery are imported. On the basis of this model, basic technologies used to implement the defense in depth system are discussed. At last, a defense in-depth system of a typical network is given.

<p>With the growth in digital world, it is becoming more important to find a method to<br />protect the security of digital media. An image watermarking model based on visual secret<br />sharing (VSS) is proposed for protection of ownership. In the embedding phase, the<br />watermark is first divided by VSS into two parts, a hiding watermark and a secret watermark.<br />Then only the hiding watermark is embedded into the original image and the secret<br />watermark is reserved for watermark extracting by the owner. In the extracting phase, the<br />hiding watermark is extracted from the watermarked image first and then directly<br />superimposed on the secret watermark to recover the watermark information. Digital<br />watermarking has been proposed as a possible brick of such protection systems. However,<br />application of watermarking for multimedia content protection in realistic scenarios poses<br />several security issues.<br />A digital watermarking technique is used to generate meaningful shares. The secret image<br />shares are watermarked with different cover images and are transmitted. At the receiving side,<br />the cover images are extracted from the shares and stacked one by one which reveals the secret<br />image progressively. Digital watermarking using visual cryptography provides improved security<br />for encrypting secret images.</p>
