2. E-Document Protection “Watermarking” Approach Mr. Lahouari Ghouti and Dr. Jarallah Al-Ghamdi College of Computer Science and Engineering KFUPM University September 2004

3. Outline Digital Watermarking Document Distribution Infrastructure Three Phases of Document Distribution Protocol: – Acquisition of Registration Certificates – Acquisition of Documents – Resolution of Policy Violation Conclusions

4. A Challenge Which is one is the original???

6. Introduction Enterprise document management across a large enterprise is difficult: Sensitive documents often found in photocopier rooms or public folders at file servers!!! Why? It involves both digital and non-digital forms. It covers both automated and manual procedures. It requires a truly distributed solution. It supports multimedia format. It must be flexible, allowing individual group to refine its own policies. It should protect privacy wherever applicable.

7. Secrecy Issues Consider the following WWII “press cable”: PRESIDENT’S EMBARGO RULING SHOULD HAVE IMMEDIATE NOTICE. GRAVE SITUATION AFFECTING INTERNATIONAL LAW. STATEMENT FORESHADOWS RUIN OF MANY NEUTRALS. YELLOW JOURNALS UNIFYING NATIONAL EXCITEMENT IMMENSELY.

9. Proposed Solution We propose the use of “digital watermarking” to enforce enterprise document distribution policy. Document provider disseminates watermarked documents based on the registration certificate submitted by end user End User Document Provider

10. Watermarking??? Two common applications of digital watermarking: 1. Identify and claim the copyrights ownership. 2. Identify the origin of illegal distribution. Watermarks are exclusively owned by individuals.

11. Encryption Original Encrypted

12. Watermarking: Origins Digital Watermarking is originated from “Steganography” Stego. Graphos.

13. Watermarking: An Example

16. Minute alterations of letter, word, and line spacing. E.g., Change line spacing by 1/300 inch: imperceptible to the human eye, but easily detected by computers. Rumored to have been used by British government in 1980’s to catch leaks.

26. Key Issues in Watermarked Document Distribution Protocol PhasesIssues Registration Certificate Acquisition - Secrecy of watermarks Watermarked Document Acquisition - End users cannot be trusted - Document providers cannot be trusted Policy Violation Resolution - End users cannot be trusted - Document providers cannot be trusted

27. Some Concerns Identify the origin of illegal distribution: –End user owning the origin is liable –End user’s watermark is analogous to a private key  Could we protect end user’s watermark in document distribution to prevent others (including the document provider) from abusing the watermark?

28. Our Solution End users need not release their watermarks Instead, end users release an encrypted version of their watermarks So, how does a document provider validate an encrypted watermark? Trusted Enterprise Registration Authority Use registration certificate to protect the integrity of encrypted watermark

29. Watermarked Document Distribution Infrastructure Obtain Once Document provider disseminates watermarked documents based on the registration certificate submitted by end user Enterprise registration authority generates registration certificate for end user End User Enterprise Registration Authority Document Provider Policy enforcer collects evidence of policy violation from document provider Policy Enforcer

30. Watermark Acquisition apply for registration certificate Registration Certificate Request generate watermark Registration Certificate Response obtain PKI certificate store certificate End User Enterprise Registration Authority activities data objects

31. Implementation Architecture Enterprise Registration Authority Request Registration Certificate Deliver Registration Certificate Encrypted watermarked document Document Registry Look up document access information and policy Check out Register document access information and policy End User Check in document with registration certificate Store and retrieve document access history Deliver permutation function and registration certificate Submit suspected document request for evidence Document Access Log Document Server of the Provider Policy Enforcer Certificate Repository Maintain directories of valid and revoked Registration Certificates

32. Registration Certificate Version (of Registration Certificate Format) Registration Certificate Serial Number Signature Algorithm Identifier (for Certificate Issuer’s Signature) Issuer Name Validity Period (Start and Expiry Dates/Times) Subject Name Roles Subject’s Public Key information (Algorithm Identifier & Public Key Value) One-Way Hash Value of Encrypted Secret Text Encrypted Image Watermark & Watermarking Algorithm Identifiers Encrypted Audio Watermark & Watermarking Algorithm Identifiers Encrypted Video Watermark & Watermarking Algorithm Identifiers Issuer’s Digital Signature Optional

33. What Else??? Study the integration of watermarking protocols and inter-organizational workflows and e-marketplace negotiations.
