Error level analysis

ID: error-level-analysis

Error Level Analysis (ELA) is a technique used in digital forensics and image analysis for detecting alterations in digital images. The basic premise behind ELA is that when an image is manipulated or edited, the compression levels of the modified areas may differ from the original areas. This is particularly relevant for images that are saved in lossy formats like JPEG. ### How ELA Works: 1. **Image Compression**: Digital images are often compressed to reduce file size.
