Abstract
In this paper we describe a scheme in which each receiver of a multicast session receives a stream with a different, unique watermark, while still retaining the scalability of multicast. The watermarked streams can be used to trace those users who make unauthorized copies of a stream. The watermarking is enabled by encryption of two slightly different copies of the original stream with a large set of different keys.
