Watermarking is a method to hide the image efficiently into any covering object (image in our case) so no intruder can interpret it by any means. Proposed work is a new design of image watermarking which include pre-processing of cover image with Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). Proposed work using an alphanumeric key which initially modifies the watermark using simple ‘XOR’ operation, and at the receiver end this key must be there so that receiver can extract the watermark.  Proposed work is also using torus Automorphism which initially changes the watermark into a scramble format which cannot be recognised as original watermark.
