P. 1–6.
The aim of the study is to create a wide area information system that allows one to control processes of generation, embedding, extraction, and detection of steganographic information. In this paper, the following problems are considered: the definition of the system scope and the development of its architecture. For creation of algorithmic maintenance of the system, classic methods of steganography are used to embed information. Methods of mathematical statistics and computational intelligence are used to identify the embedded information. The main result of the paper is the development of the architecture of the management system of complex steganographic information. The suggested architecture utilizes cloud technology in order to provide service using the web-service via the Internet. It is meant to provide streams of multimedia data processing that are streams with many sources of different types. The information system, built in accordance with the proposed architecture, will be used in the following areas: hidden transfer of documents protected by medical secrecy in telemedicine systems; copyright protection of online content in public networks; prevention of information leakage caused by insiders.

Using an attack-simulation module is a well-recognized approach to improving the robustness of end-to-end neural-network-based data-hiding schemes. However, most proposed attack simulators are limited in the types of attacks they cover, usually handling only a basic set of digital transformations. Real, in-demand use cases for data-hiding methods may involve modifications that cannot be modeled by ...

Watermarking is a key tool in combating unauthorized content distribution, but its effectiveness is often challenged by the wide range of communication channels that can degrade or remove the watermark. We propose a block neural network-based watermarking scheme for digital images that is robust against diverse transmission channels, including compression, pre-processing, and digital-to-analog conversions such ...

Invisible image watermarking is a promising method for protecting the copyright of digital images such as photographs, illustrations, and scans. An effective watermarking algorithm embeds a special mark into an image that does not change the image content but can be extracted from it even after some common post-processing operations such as cropping or compression. ...
