Abstract: The paper presents a new model for a unified description of information hiding systems including both steganographic and watermarking systems. The model is based on considering three possible representations of the information being embedded: a binary vector, a digital signal, and a feature matrix. Some examples of the model usage are discussed.

Keywords: information hiding, data hiding, digital watermarking, watermarking system, steganography, steganographic system.
