What this page covers

media and publishing teams need proof that decisions, controls, changes and incidents happened under the right policy and system version. This page maps the evidence Attesto can seal before an audit or customer review.

Legal timing

C2PA is an industry provenance standard, not a general EU compliance law. It becomes commercially important where organizations need to prove how media was created, edited, approved and published.

This page is implementation guidance for evidence planning, not legal advice.

FAQ

How is this different from a normal log?

A normal log asks an auditor to trust the system that produced it. Attesto records hashes, signatures, Merkle proofs and verifier receipts so selected evidence can be checked independently.

Does Attesto need to expose raw sensitive data?

No. Raw records can remain encrypted or customer-controlled while proof material is shared for verification.
