Cloudflare has integrated Content Credentials, a digital signature system developed by Adobe's Content Authenticity Initiative, to track and verify the authenticity of images across its network. This technology embeds metadata that documents an image's origin, creation date, and any modifications, including those made by AI tools. Major news organizations like the BBC, Wall Street Journal, and New York Times have already adopted this system.
The feature is now available through a simple toggle in Cloudflare Images settings, allowing users to ensure image authenticity. Verification can be done using Adobe's web tool or Chrome extension, providing a reliable method for confirming the integrity of images.
