The 16th International Workshop on Digital-forensics and Watermarking (IWDW 2017) is a premier forum for researchers and practitioners working on novel research, development and applications of digital watermarking and forensics techniques for multimedia security.

Under the umbrella of the workshop, we will organize a session on:

***Emerging threats of Criminal Use of Information Hiding: Usage Scenarios and Detection Approaches***

The session will be organized jointly with the Europol EC3 initiative CUING (Criminal Use of Information Hiding) and aims to bring together academic and law-enforcement related research, including outlooks, on the application of steganography, covert channels, watermarking and other forms of information hiding in the context of cybercrime.
