Abstract

In this paper we consider c-secure fingerprinting codes for copyright protection. We construct a probabilistic fingerprint code and show that at least one colluder in a coalition of up to c users can be traced with high probability. We prove that this code is shorter than the Boneh-Shaw code. In addition, we show that it is asymptotically optimal when c is constant.
