TL;DR

Leica's new M11-P camera features an internal security chip that generates a signed certificate in the metadata of each image, allowing photos to be verified through Adobe's Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI). The camera embeds an encrypted signature into the DNG raw and JPG files, containing the artist's name, camera make and model, and photo EXIF data. Images with embedded Content Credentials can be verified on Adobe's verification page, providing a means to prove the authenticity and integrity of the images. The feature is optional and can be turned on in the camera's settings.
