Host Chris Lacinak is joined by Bertram Lyons, Co-Founder and CEO of Medex Forensics, to unravel the complexities of content authenticity. This is a topic that touches every organization, from Fortune 500 to museums, and government to human rights. This episode offers listeners a look into this vital topic, equipped with Lyons' expert insights and involvement with the latest developments in the field.
We discuss why content authenticity matters, why the problem has become an urgent one to address, what's so tricky about it, and what you can do about it today.
We touch on the Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) and the C2PA schema, initiatives aimed at embedding provenance data into digital content to enable verifiable authenticity.
It's an essential listen that will help anyone who owns, manages, or creates digital assets navigate the complexities of content authenticity. We delve into the significance of these efforts for the Digital Asset Management (DAM) ecosystem and the broader implications for protecting and verifying digital assets across industries.
