LEHI, Utah, Aug. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fake videos of celebrities, politicians and business leaders have evolved from an amusing novelty on social media to a pervasive threat across all digital platforms, with the potential to influence market valuations and election outcomes, spread disinformation and perpetrate phishing attacks on an unprecedented scale.
With the 2024 US elections approaching, Attestiv has launched a professional deepfake detection solution designed for individuals, influencers and businesses. Attestiv’s new solution is free (Premium and Enterprise versions are available) and is aimed at viewers who want to determine whether a video is real or fake, or victims of deepfake scams who have a powerful toolkit to fight back.
Attestiv’s new video deepfake detection platform – available for early access at https://video.attestiv.com – allows anyone to analyze videos or social media links to videos for deepfake content. The Attestiv solution is based on proprietary AI analysis that provides an assessment and comprehensive breakdown of fake elements and indicates exactly where they can be found in each video.
With the launch of its free deepfake detection tool, Attestiv offers the fastest and most reliable way to assess the legitimacy of digital videos, helping companies and individuals protect themselves from fraud, loss and reputational damage. Attestiv’s technology is particularly helpful for companies in industries that have the highest demands on integrity, security and compliance, such as banking, insurance, real estate, media and healthcare.
“With the never-ending flood of generative AI tools that can be used for fakes and deception, we are excited to level the playing field with the launch of our free deepfake video detection platform. We have leveraged years of experience in fake and fraud detection, proven in sophisticated insurance applications, and made it available to everyone to protect themselves and their businesses from this cyber threat that can cause immense reputational and monetary damage,” said Attestiv Founder and CEO Nicos Vekiarides.
The rapid development of artificial intelligence and apps that can project a face onto another person’s body has led to an explosion in fake videos – some of them created with malicious and fraudulent intent. In 2023 Reuters reported that “among the thousands appearing on social media are realistic but fabricated videos created by AI algorithms trained on extensive online footage that mix fact and fiction.” In addition to congressional hearings on the issue, government agencies such as the NSA have issued advice on how to combat the cybersecurity problems of synthetic media.
