Summary

In this chapter we study how we can secure multimedia content against copyrights infringements. The basic tools in this area, are steganography and digital watermarks. After introducing the basic notions of steganography and digital watermarking, we study the currently used techniques, focusing mainly on the protection of image contents, and discuss the security that they can offer to the protected content.
