Content Credentials
A content provenance and authenticity verification mechanism led by Adobe and based on the C2PA standard, which can attach cryptographically signed metadata to images to record their editing history.

The limitation of content credentials is that metadata may be lost during transcoding or screenshots, and malicious parties can choose not to embed or can forge credentials, so they need to be used in conjunction with platform-side verification mechanisms.
Establishing verifiable provenance identifiers for digital content (such as content credentials and digital watermarks) is regarded as critical infrastructure for combating misinformation.
The Content Credentials technical standard uses cryptographic signatures to attach an immutable record to content, tracing its creation and editing chain.
The approach of 'proving authenticity' rather than 'detecting fakes' is a more sustainable direction.
