Digital watermarking software applications are making their way
into the Internet arena. These programs/plug-ins embed information about the
author into video, audio or graphics files. This information, when decoded with
the appropriate software, can reveal things such as the author's address, terms
of use, copyright date, etc. Watermarks are unremovable and unalterable. The
information does not degrade with file duplication and does not perceptively
disrupt the original data file. For more information regarding digital
watermarks, see the articles section.
