Abstract

A digital fingerprint is a unique pattern embedded in a digital document to be able to identify a specific copy when it is used illegally. We have looked at two specific code structures for fingerprinting purpose. Binary linear codes, often used as error correcting codes, and what we call a binary sorted code.

The earliest paper on fingerprinting that we have found is [11], which contains a general description of the idea. The first paper on fingerprinting in the presence
