[_Durable Content Credentials_](https://contentauthenticity.org/blog/durable-content-credentials) is a concept that helps content provenance to persist across content platforms by also using:

- **Invisible watermarks**, actively inserted into the content
- **Content fingerprinting**, passively computed from the content.

Platforms might remove C2PA manifest data, if, for example, they use software that does not yet support the standard. By storing a copy of the manifest data in an online database, you can use a watermark or a fingerprint to find it again.
Platforms that host media assets might remove C2PA manifest data, if, for example, they use software that does not yet support the standard. By storing a copy of the manifest data in an online database, you can use a watermark or a fingerprint to find it again.
Combining both watermark and fingerprints further improves the robustness of the provenance information.

In the C2PA specification, watermarks and content fingerprinting are known as [soft bindings](https://c2pa.org/specifications/specifications/2.1/specs/C2PA_Specification.html#_soft_bindings), which can be used to find digital content, even if the underlying bits differ. The C2PA specification requires that soft bindings be generated using one of the [algorithms](https://c2pa.org/specifications/specifications/2.1/specs/C2PA_Specification.html#_soft_binding_algorithm_list) approved by the C2PA Technical Working Group. The following table lists the algorithms from the [C2PA Soft Binding Algorithm List](https://github.com/c2pa-org/softbinding-algorithm-list).
