About this event

This event is free and open to the public. 

How can audiences know that digital content actually came from an individual or organization claiming authorship? The ability for individual creators, organizations, governments, and others to verifiably assert who they are, and for audiences to view and evaluate those assertions, has broad implications for trust online.

Content Credentials can enable viewers to see the origins of a piece of content—how it was made, but also who made it. The Creator Assertions Working Group (CAWG) is responsible for developing and promoting open standards for expressing identity in Content Credentials, building upon the technical specification created by the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA).

Join Eric Scouten, Identity Standards Architect at the Content Authenticity Initiative, and Santiago Lyon, Head of Advocacy and Education at the Content Authenticity Initiative, in a conversation about CAWG’s role in defining the “who” aspect of Content Credentials, current trends, considerations, and challenges.
