Piracy is one of the biggest concerns in entertainment industry. Digital copies are perfect copies. An anti-piracy defense is to perform forensic analysis and identify who participates in the piracy and disable him/her from doing it again in the future. In this paper, we classify potential pirate attacks in various broadcast type content distribution systems. We shall also present corresponding forensic analysis scheme for those attacks. © 2005 IEEE.
