IMPLEMENTATION OF IMAGE AUTHENTICATION USING DIGITAL WATERMARKING WITH BIOMETRIC

The rapid global development of E-commerce in terms digitalization and distribution digital contents the form image, audio, video, increases possibility unrestricted duplication broadcasting copyrighted data protection crucial documents is highly significant. Digital watermarking inserts watermark into cover or host by unnoticeable modification. In this work with biometric features done. a technique to implement hiding an image inside another using namely signature fingerprint techniques To accomplish this, hybrid scheme consisting Discrete Wavelet Transform, Cosine Transform Singular Value Decomposition (DWT-DCT-SVD) proposed for authentication that robust against attacks. Here, singular values watermark1 (fingerprint) watermark2 (signature) are obtained applying DWT-DCT-SVD. By adding both watermarks we acquire transformed watermark. improve security, robustness provide authenticity two-step method demonstrated. evaluation parameters like PSNR (Peak Signal Noise Ratio), SSIM (Structured Similarity Index Method), normalized correlation coefficient (NCC) used quality assessment.
