PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island - MediaSec, the Multimedia Security Company, today announced the incorporation of their MediaSign-Digital® software product into Ascom's toll collection solution. MediaSign® Digital offers a highly secure and low-cost solution to protect digital images and video against unauthorized alteration. It is a permanent and inseparable image and video authentication that is perceptually invisible. It embeds a secure hash value of the data's semantics into the data as a digital watermark. Authentication features include content, time, source and sequence verification. "As digital replaces analog in the video surveillance world, authentication has become a huge issue due to the relative ease in which digital images and video can be altered and manipulated. Surveillance video is worthless if it can't stand up in court and its validity must be beyond reproach. Without question, MediaSign-Digital makes security and authentication of video data a snap " said Bill Mallinson, Director for Sales and Business Development at MediaSec Technologies in Providence, Rhode Island. "The integration of MediaSign-Digital into the toll collection monitoring system from Ascom is a great example of how to secure the video for acceptance in the courts."
