The adage "photos don't lie" is no longer reliable. The advent of digital
editing tools makes it relatively easy to move, add, or delete features
from photographs. Audio content is similarly susceptible to alteration.
This problem is at least partially overcome by providing the content with
supplemental data that is below a threshold of human perception. If a
version of the content is thereafter encountered with the supplemental
data missing or attenuated, it is known to have been altered. By reference
to such supplemental data, it is often possible to identify particular
portions of the content that have been altered.
