Abstract

Copy-move is one type of attack to forge a digital image where the attacker duplicates several areas of the image and paste them in different places to conceal a particular object on the original image. After the forgery, advanced methods such as noise addition and blurring, are often performed in the forged image to make it more challenging to recognize the attack. Therefore, it is required to do a preprocessing before conducting the detection. The preprocessing can be eliminated using a copy-move detection that is more resistant to noise addition and blurring. This paper proposes a new, flexible, and robust method that perform forensic analysis of both regular and advanced copy-move using modification and addition from two methods. The first method is designed to identify a regular copy-move attack, while the second one is effective for an advanced attack. The proposed method combines these two methods, can adapt to the forged image condition, and no preprocessing is required.
