The 17th IWDW 2018 will be held Oct. 22 - 24, 2018 in Jeju, Korea. For over a decade, IWDW has been a premier event for researchers and practitioners working on digital watermarking and forensic for multimedia security. 

We invite submissions of high-quality original research papers.

The proceedings of the IWDW 2018 will follow the series of the IWDW in Springer LNCS (2017 Proceedings).

Please check the following web page for the authors' guidelines (www.springer.com/lncs). All materials for the publication will be required by e-mail.
