Glossary term
Information about where a piece of content came from and how it was made or edited.
Content provenance records where a file came from and how it changed: the camera or tool that made it, the edits applied and who signed them. The record is cryptographically attached so tampering can be detected.
It helps establish authenticity rather than detecting fakes.
As synthetic media spreads, provenance gives audiences a way to check a source instead of guessing.
