In the modern world, image encryption is of vital significance where watermarking is the main tool for securing the image's integrity. This paper tenders a compound transforms domain based blind as well as a secure watermarking scheme for colour images. For enacting the aforementioned intentions, three watermarks are ingrained in the three colour components of the colour image from adopting a DC component matrix technique in discrete cosine transform(DCT). Discrete wavelet transform(DWT) is adopted prior to the ingraining in order to get LL sub-band from each component of the colour image. A simple encryption technique has been engaged in order to escalate the security of the watermark.
