Abstract
Techniques are provided for generation of secure video and tamper detection of the secure video. A methodology implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes selecting a subset of macroblocks from a video frame to be transmitted and calculating a low frequency metric on each of the selected macroblocks. The method also includes performing a hash calculation on the low frequency metrics to generate a frame signature, encrypting the frame signature (using a private key) to generate an encrypted watermark, and modifying pixels of each of the selected macroblocks to generate the secured video frame, the modifications based on bits of the encrypted watermark that are associated with the selected macroblock. The method further includes authenticating a received video frame by comparing a calculated frame signature to an authenticated frame signature, the authenticated frame signature decrypted (using a public key) from an extracted watermark of the received video frame.
