Open Issues

Digital fingerprinting is reported and used in copy tracing. It embeds different information, for example, Customer ID, into multimedia content, produces a different copy, and sends the copy to the corresponding customer. If a copy is spread to unauthorized customers, the unique information in the copy can be detected and used to trace the illegal distributors. In this chapter, we introduce some digital fingerprinting algorithms, review the existing traitor tracing schemes, analyze the performances of some typical algorithms through comparison, and propose the future trends and some open issues in this field. It is expected to provide some valuable information to researchers or engineers working in mobile multimedia security.

Multimedia content distribution is a key technique for multimedia services, which transmits multimedia content from a sender to certain receiver(s). With the popularity of multimedia services, the trust issues in content distribution becomes urgent, including the authorized access, privacy protection, trusted payment, piracy surveillance, and so forth. This chapter introduces the trust issues in multimedia content distribution (e.g., authorization, authentication, privacy, payment, ownership, illegal distribution, forgery, etc.), reviews the latest research progress of the solutions, and presents some open issues and promising research topics. It is expected to provide valuable information to researchers or engineers in this field.
