Trace Metadata and Asset Provenance — Trace Metadata and Asset Provenance

The C2PA specification supports a wide range of standard assertions that can be used to document the history of an asset. These assertions include details about edit actions, metadata, capture devices, and bindings to content.

By wrapping these statements into a digitally signed claim, a claim generator produces a verifiable unit known as a C2PA Manifest. This system enables users to verify the integrity and origin of different components within a media file.
