Video Authentication: Issues and Challenges

Video authentication aims to ensure the trustworthiness of the video by verifying the integrity and source of video data. It has gained much attention in the recent years. In this paper we present the issues in the designing of a video authentication system. These issues include the classification of tampering attacks, levels of tampering attack and robustness. Further we present the categorization of existing video authentication techniques with their shortcomings. Moreover we have also given the challenging scenarios in which the video authentication would be a critical task.
