- Abstract
In the paper we discuss how one could solve the second problem of digital watermarking. It has been presented a solution to copy protection of multimedia objects and dozens of schemes and algorithms have been proposed. Two main problems seriously darken the future of this technology though. The large number of attacks and weaknesses which appear as fast as new algorithms are proposed emphasizes the limits ofthis technology and in particular the fact that it may not match users' expectations. Requirements, tools and methodologies to assess the current technologies are almost non-existent. The lack of benchmarking ofcurrent algorithms is blatant. This confuses rights holders as well as software and hardware manufacturers and prevents them from using the solution appropriate to their needs. Indeed basing long-lived prQtection schemes on badly tested watermarking technology does not make sense
