"Ring has launched a new tool that can tell you if a video clip captured by its camera has been altered or not. The company says that every video downloaded from Ring starting in December 2025 going forward will come with a digital security seal. "Think of it like the tamper-evident seal on a medicine bottle," it explained. Its new tool, called Ring Verify, can tell you if a video has been altered in any way."
"Even adjusting a video clip's brightness or trimming a few seconds off will break that seal, and the tool will tell you that it cannot be verified. All you have to do is visit the tool's web page and upload the video you want to check. In the era of AI, you can also use the tool to make sure you're looking at a real Ring video instead of something generated by artificial intelligence models."
Ring will attach a digital security seal to every video downloaded from Ring beginning December 2025. Ring Verify can determine whether a downloaded or shared video has been altered; even changes such as brightness adjustments or trimming will break the seal and render a video unverified. Users can upload a clip to Ring's verification webpage to check the seal. Seals are embedded in videos from all Ring camera models and in videos shared from Ring cloud storage. The tool cannot identify what specific edits were made or reliably determine whether footage was AI-generated. Owners are advised to share videos directly from the Ring app to ensure authenticity.
