CAWG

CAWG is the Creator Assertions Working Group, an ecosystem effort around creator-related assertions for content authenticity workflows.

Definition

CAWG-related concepts can complement C2PA workflows by describing creator assertions, but they should still be interpreted as declared evidence rather than universal truth.

How C2PA Signer uses it

The extension turns technical evidence into clear report fields and the four statuses: Trusted, Signed but untrusted, Invalid and No credentials.

Responsible interpretation

Use this term to describe available evidence. Do not use it as a claim that unsigned or uncredentialed media is false.
