Current AI image watermark removal attacks replace the watermark with a different forensic signal, allowing independent detectors to distinguish processed outputs from clean images at over 98% true-positive rate under a 1% false-positive budget.

ISTS watermarking dynamically controls injection based on prompt semantics and uses two-sided detection to resist removal and forgery attacks in diffusion models.
Derives matched converse and achievability bounds that characterize optimal trade-offs among false-alarm probability, detection error probability, distortion, and information rate for multi-bit watermarking of stationary ergodic stochastic processes.
