  • Patent number: 9239966
    Abstract: A method for watermarking a sequence of images is provided. The method implements the following steps, for at least one current image: comparing the current image with a preceding image of the sequence, delivering a difference image representing a motion between the preceding image and the current image; if the difference between the current image and the preceding image is above a predetermined threshold, watermarking the current image by inserting a message comprising a field carrying an identifier of the current image and a field carrying a soft hash obtained from at least one portion of the difference image; and if not, watermarking the current image by inserting a message comprising a field carrying an identifier of the current image.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8548164
    Abstract: Digital data blocks are encrypted, each data block that is to be encrypted being associated with a time reference. A value of an initialization vector Vi and an encryption key K are defined. Then, a counter C is obtained for each data block to be encoded, by combining the time reference and the value of the initialization vector. A series of binary encryption elements is obtained via an encryption function taking the encryption key K and counter C as input parameters. The data block is then encrypted by combining it with the series of binary encryption elements.
