We generate, transmit and store millions of images every second.Most of these images are insignificant images containing only personal information.However, in many fields such as banking, finance, public institutions,and educational institutions, the images of many valuable objects like IDcards, photographs, credit cards, and transaction receipts are stored andtransmitted to the digital environment. These images are very significantand must be secured. A valuable image can be maliciously modified by anattacker. The modification of an image is sometimes imperceptible even by theperson who stored the image. In this paper, an active image forgery detectionmethod that encodes and decodes image edge information is proposed. Theproposed method is implemented by designing an interface and applied on atest image which is frequently used in the literature. Various tampering attacksare simulated to test the fidelity of the method. The method not only notifieswhether the image is forged or not but also marks the tampered region ofthe image. Also, the proposed method successfully detected tampered regionsafter geometric attacks, even on self-copy attacks. Also, it didn’t fail on JPEGcompression.展开更多
