A Novel approach as Multi-place Watermarking for Security in Database

Digital multimedia watermarking technology had suggested in the last decade to embed copyright information in digital objects such as images, audio and video. However, the increasing use of relational database systems in many real-life applications created an ever-increasing need for watermarking database systems. As a result, watermarking relational database system is now emerging as a research area that deals with the legal issue of copyright protection of database systems. The main goal of database watermarking is to generate robust and impersistent watermark for database. In this paper we propose a method, based on image as watermark and this watermark is embedded over the database at two different attribute of tuple, one in the numeric attribute of tuple and another in the date attribute's time (seconds) field. Our approach can be applied for numerical and categorical database.
