Abstract: 
Traceability Codes are Combinatorial Objects introduced by Chor, Fiat and Naor in 1994 [7] to be used in traitor tracing to protect illegal redistribution of Digital Content. Frameproof Codes were given by Boneh and Shaw in 1995 to prevent piracy. Traceable Codes is a strong form of frameproof codes due to efficient traitor tracing algorithm. Study of existence conditions of Balanced Incomplete Block Design in the form of frameproof codes is already available in literature. In the present study we discuss the existence conditions of Balanced Incomplete Block Design in the form of 2-Traceable Codes.
