Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews: "If you need a detailed snapshot of the current state of the art in multimedia security and rights management, this book is probably your best source. … Overall, I found the book to be very useful for making a first acquaintance with cryptography and watermarking technologies for multimedia security and digital rights management. Besides the usual academic and engineering audience, this work could be recommended to technically involved marketing individuals who deal with multimedia products and services."
