A Digital Rights Management System and Copyright Protection for Digital Images of the Official Web Portal of the Hellenic Culture

The dissemination of Cultural Heritage involves the risk of copyright infringement and unauthorized use. This paper addresses the issue of the copyright protection and rights management of digital images for a web site related to culture. For this purpose, an innovative watermarking method is integrated into an advanced user-friendly interface that supports a digital rights management strategy. The test platform for this application is “Ulysses”, the Official Portal of the Hellenic Ministry of Culture (HMC). The whole practice indicates that the aforementioned problems are satisfactorily addressed.
