Usr6 Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Watermarks are used as a way to retain control of information in a world where information is uncontrollable. They are a type of metadata that is inserted into data so the creator of the watermark can have a measure of control over how this data is used, viewed, and distributed. Watermarks can be human readable or machine readable, and they can be visible or invisible. Sometimes watermarks have flaws. They can be stripped out of the data or altered.Author: Allison NixonDownload: http://www.giac.org/paper/gcia/8782/watermarks-prevent-leaks/129481 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
