From the reviews:
"This compact book gives the reader a complete overview of the techniques used for the encryption of digital video and images. This is evidently of deep technical interest nowadays, with the growth of applications such as pay-per-view and digital video broadcasting on demand. … It is extremely readable, even for those who are not experts in this specific field. Practitioners and students will benefit from this book. … a pleasant and interesting read for researchers from other fields who want to approach video encryption technologies." (Stefano Zanero, Computing Reviews, August, 2005)
