Robust video watermarking scheme using high efficiency video coding attack

In order to make a balance between robustness and watermark payload data, an efficient video watermarking scheme is proposed. It is aimed to design and implementing a robust video watermarking scheme based on High Efficiency Video Coding as an attack tool. HEVC which is an emerging video compression standard that provides better compression performance as compared to its predecessor, i.e. H.264/AVC. An important level of security is added through a robust watermarking scheme which is used for hiding ownership profile inside the video. This security protects the copyright protection of the digital video contents. The embedding process selects either minimum values from sorted data or maximum value according to the length of the watermark (text and logo in this research). Test results show that for a high definition video quality (1 K, 2 K and 4 K), the proposed scheme has a high robustness when the watermark logo data is embedded in a low frequency data.
