A method is presented for decoding auxiliary information in digital images which enables the encoding of both compact auxiliary information specific to a given image and a secret message into a given image such that the hidden message contained therein is only revealed in such a way that neither the image itself nor the auxiliary information alone are sufficient to reveal the secret message. Specifically, a method for decoding an auxiliary message in a digital image, having the steps of first receiving a function F through secure means; then, for each pixel (i,j) in digital image (D) obtaining a NxN windowed observation; applying function F to said NxN windowed observation; marking a corresponding pixel in message (I) with the value obtained from function F; and then writing out the hidden message.
