N2 - Technology advances and easy access to multimedia tools with digital content have increased the number of issues in copyright procedures. Digital watermarks are a set of techniques that are used to protect the copyright of digital content. In this paper, a robust watermarking framework to embed a color watermark is presented. To perform a color image as watermark, a method based on Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Quantization Index Modulation (QIM) has been designed, besides, the color watermark is encoded in such a way that data to represent the colors are reduced. Additionally, the coded watermark is embedded into the mid-frequency coefficients of DCT to ensure the robustness and imperceptibility of the watermark. The efficiency of the proposed scheme against the most common attacks such as JPEG compression, impulsive and Gaussian noises, scaling, etc., has been tested in terms of Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Similarity Structural Index Measure (SSIM) and Normalized Correlation Coefficient (NCC) demonstrating good performance.
