An Improved Statistic for the Pooled Triangle Test against PRNU-Copy Attack
We propose a new statistic to improve the pooled version of the triangle test
used to combat the fingerprint-copy counter-forensic attack against PRNU-based
camera identification [1]. As opposed to the original version of the test, the
new statistic exploits the one-tail nature of the test, weighting differently
positive and negative deviations from the expected value of the correlation
between the image under analysis and the candidate images, i.e., those image
suspected to have been used during the attack. The experimental results confirm
the superior performance of the new test, especially when the conditions of the
test are challenging ones, that is when the number of images used for the
fingerprint-copy attack is large and the size of the image under test is small.Comment: submitted to IEEE Signal Processing Letter
Multimedia Forensics
This book is open access. Media forensics has never been more relevant to societal life. Not only media content represents an ever-increasing share of the data traveling on the net and the preferred communications means for most users, it has also become integral part of most innovative applications in the digital information ecosystem that serves various sectors of society, from the entertainment, to journalism, to politics. Undoubtedly, the advances in deep learning and computational imaging contributed significantly to this outcome. The underlying technologies that drive this trend, however, also pose a profound challenge in establishing trust in what we see, hear, and read, and make media content the preferred target of malicious attacks. In this new threat landscape powered by innovative imaging technologies and sophisticated tools, based on autoencoders and generative adversarial networks, this book fills an important gap. It presents a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art forensics capabilities that relate to media attribution, integrity and authenticity verification, and counter forensics. Its content is developed to provide practitioners, researchers, photo and video enthusiasts, and students a holistic view of the field
Information Forensics and Security: A quarter-century-long journey
Information forensics and security (IFS) is an active R&D area whose goal is to ensure that people use devices, data, and intellectual properties for authorized purposes and to facilitate the gathering of solid evidence to hold perpetrators accountable. For over a quarter century, since the 1990s, the IFS research area has grown tremendously to address the societal needs of the digital information era. The IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) has emerged as an important hub and leader in this area, and this article celebrates some landmark technical contributions. In particular, we highlight the major technological advances by the research community in some selected focus areas in the field during the past 25 years and present future trends

Graceful Degradation in IoT Security
As the consumer grade IoT devices industry advances, personal privacy is constantly eroded for the sake of convenience. Current security solutions, although available, ignore convenience by requiring the purchase of additional hardware, implementing confusing, out of scope updates for a non-technical user, or quarantining a device, rendering it useless. This paper proposes a solution that simultaneously maintains convenience and privacy, tailored for the Internet of Things. We propose a novel graceful degradation technique which targets individual device functionalities for acceptance or denial at the network level. When combined with current anomaly detection and fingerprinting methods, graceful degradation provides a personalized IoT security solution for the modern user
