You probably think you can spot a deepfake image or video, but the chances are you can’t. The pace of change in AI generated deepfakes in the last year is such that we are quite literally going to have to learn to reject the evidence of our own eyes and ears.

If we rely on our senses and our instincts, we will fail.

It’s not an easy message to hear, and the speed of development in the disinformation space means that the extent, and potential cost, of the problem is being drastically underestimated.

But whose problem, is it?

Is it a cybersecurity issue? Yes. Is it a financial problem? Also yes. Is it a human resource or a governance issue? All of the above.

Where organisational silos and gaps exist, disinformation-based attacks can flourish. So, who leads the fightback and where do you even begin?

Join us for a webinar, featuring Flick (Felicity) March, EMEA Cyber Strategy Lead for Accenture and Penny Horwood, Computing Associate Editor where we will discuss the disinformation and deepfake threat landscape and examine the rise of sophisticated social engineering tactics.

We’ll highlight some examples of successful (and nearly successful) deepfakes to talk about the tools and tactics most likely to be effective in a world defined by disinformation, and we’ll examine the organisational models of responsibility that are being deployed to close the gaps where disinformation thrives.

Join us on 16th July, 3pm.
