  • 按内容属性控制水印检测权限,防止密钥被滥用于非法清除或追踪。
  • 水印不可见且在非授权属性下无法被识别,确保隐私安全。
  • 适合需要可控溯源的生成式AI部署场景,如内容审核与合规监管。

生成式AI系统生成的内容难以验证来源,催生了水印技术以识别模型输出。现有密码学水印方法虽具备强不可检测性——无检测密钥时水印输出与正常输出无法区分——但未解决检测能力安全委托这一关键问题。若检测密钥无限制,恶意检测者可能超出预期用途,实施水印清除、范围滥用或用户画像。为此,我们首次提出面向生成式AI的属性基水印机制,实现细粒度、策略可控的水印检测。每个生成输出关联属性,每个检测密钥受对应属性策略约束:仅当输出属性满足策略时,才能被检测;否则,水印输出仍与未水印内容在计算上不可区分。我们构建了该水印方案并形式化其安全性,包括一致性、对抗有界篡改的鲁棒性、不可检测性和正确性,并在标准密码假设下完成安全证明。方案结合受限伪随机函数、伪随机纠错码与随机性恢复过程,集成至生成式AI模型。最后,我们实现了原型并进行实证评估,验证了该方法在实际应用中的有效性与可行性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Generative AI systems increasingly produce content whose provenance is difficult to verify, motivating watermarking techniques for identifying model-generated outputs. Existing cryptographic watermarking methods provide strong undetectability guarantees: without a detection key, watermarked outputs are computationally indistinguishable from unwatermarked ones. However, these approaches do not address the crucial deployment challenge of how to safely delegate detection capabilities. With an unrestricted detection key, a malicious detector may use the detection key beyond its intended scope, enabling watermark sanitization, scope abuse, and user profiling. To mitigate this safety concern, we introduce, to the best of our knowledge, the first \emph{attribute-based watermarking} for generative AI models, providing fine-grained, policy-controlled watermark detection. In our approach, each generated output is associated with attributes, and each detection key is \emph{constrained by a policy} on potential attributes. A detection key can only be used to detect watermarked outputs whose attributes satisfy the corresponding policy, while watermarked outputs that fall outside the policy remain computationally indistinguishable from unwatermarked ones. We construct such an attribute-based watermarking scheme and formalize its security properties, including consistency, adaptive robustness to bounded corruptions, undetectability, and soundness, along with a security proof under standard cryptographic assumptions. Our construction integrates constrained pseudorandom functions, pseudorandom error-correcting codes, and randomness recovery procedures with generative AI models. Finally, we implement a prototype and an empirical evaluation, demonstrating that attribute-based watermarking is both effective and practical.
