Description
Summary:Considering the requirements of comprehensive data security protection in the current distributed technology environment, this paper proposes a new fragile watermarking algorithm in the ciphertext domain, which takes advantage of multipermutation superposition coding and the single-plaintext-multiple-ciphertext characteristic of probabilistic encryption. Without decryption, the proposed algorithm realizes integrity verification and tamper localization in the ciphertext domain and also embeds a large-capacity meaningful watermark, which is rare for fragile watermarking. According to the experimental results, in addition to the basic function implementation, the proposed ciphertext domain fragile watermarking algorithm has little impact on the security of the cryptographic algorithm and does not affect the decryption. Meanwhile, the proposed algorithm is highly sensitive to data tampering, which can be located at the pixel level. More importantly, the proposed algorithm is easy to implement and does not require the original carrier data during watermark extraction; thus, it serves as a valuable reference for the implementation of ciphertext data integrity verification technology.
