"To maximise its effectiveness, we focused on accuracy and speed," said Ziv Yankowitz, Surf Security's CTO. The tool's neural network is trained using deepfakes created by the top AI voice cloning platforms.
"It can spot a deepfake audio in less than 2 seconds," said Yankowitz. The system has an integrated background noise reduction feature to clear up audio before processing.
Deepfakes, which use AI to create convincing fake audio or video, are a rising threat. Just this week, researchers at the BBC unearthed deepfake audio clips of David Attenborough.
This is just the tip of an ugly iceberg. Deepfakes have been used to enable large-scale fraud, incite political unrest through misinformation, and destroy reputations.
