A zero-distortion fragile watermarking scheme to detect and localize malicious modifications in textual database relations

In this paper, we present a new zero-distortion fragile watermarking scheme to detect and localize malicious modifications in textual database relations. Most existing fragile watermarking schemes introduce errors or permanent distortion into the original database content. These distortions violat...

Although, some fragile schemes are able to authenticate the database integrity and detect the malicious modifications made on the database but they are either tuples or attributes ordering based and unable to characterize the attack, identify the type of attack, identify the tampered data and locating the tampered tuples.
