English Abstract

This study aims at proposing a system to solve problems of modification, forgery, illegal manipulation and distribution of digital image.

Digital watermarking has been proposed as one of the possible ways to deal with the problem of forging and manipulation of digital media, to keep information safe.

The main idea of the proposed system in this thesis "A Robust Framework for Watermarking System" is to overcome the problems of attack that happens during transmitting the image via communication links.

Therefore, there is a vital need to construct a framework for image watermarking against all types of attacks, i.e., illegal manipulation and distribution of digital image via Internet.

The proposed system represents a new method (HWT-DWT) constructed by cascading two different but complementary techniques for image protection by using watermarking techniques which is one of the powerful and robust schemes in protection process.

Wavelet transformation (HWT-DWT) provides robust resistance of the protected image against modification and forgery attacks.

The main significance of the proposed system is to solve problems of modification, forgery attacks, illegal manipulation and distribution of digital image.

The study findings prove the efficiency of the proposed system since it suggests a new method to protect the image for the purposes of ownerships, copyright and intellectual property.

This is done through using the PSNR to compare the results of attacks of the watermarked image with those of the original image through several examples conducted in this study.
