Abstract: Selon l'invention, un système de protection contre la copie à niveaux multiples fait la distinction entre les défaillances de sécurité dues à des défauts de procédure de détection de filigranes et les véritables défaillances de sécurité. A un premier niveau de sécurité, la tolérance aux anomalies est faible. Si le test de sécurité échoue à ce premier niveau de sécurité, le processus passe à un deuxième niveau de sécurité selon lequel la tolérance aux anomalies est accrue, ce qui se traduit par une augmentation du temps de traitement. Si le test de sécurité échoue également à ce deuxième niveau de sécurité, le processus passe à un niveau de sécurité supérieur selon lequel la tolérance aux anomalies est encore accrue, ce qui se traduit par une nouvelle augmentation du temps de traitement. Finalement, soit le test de sécurité est réussi et les éléments protégés sont restitués, soit les défaillances s'avèrent être sans rapport avec des défauts survenant dans le processus de détection de filigranes, ce qui indique que les éléments de contenu sont en fait protégés contre la copie, mais non autorisés à être restitués.
