Abstract

Watermarking implies embedding of data in a manner thatit is easily accessible by a user that’s authenticated rather than other users, bearing in mind that the underlying data may experience some changes as a result of such data embedding. Reversible watermarking has been developed in advance of watermarking, whereby both of data quality and data recovery are guaranteed. For long time, the watermarking scheme to meet image, audio and video data type security was considered ever popular, but at the same time, since last several years ago relational database watermarking was really in mind and under study, even various watermarking approaches have been suggested. Nonetheless, these techniques yet are not sturdy enough against malignant attacks that can result in false insertion, modification or elimination leading to data performance and quality deterioration. So, and with aim of advancing and improving existing watermarking techniques, a new robust and reversible relational database watermarking method is suggested by which better outcomes were achieved.
