Protect Your Organisation from AI Deepfake Scams
The age of AI is here. It's efficient. It's powerful. And it's being weaponised.
CEOs and corporate leaders are using AI to communicate faster, more consistently, and in more languages than ever. But the same tools are being used by criminals to impersonate and defraud businesses.
Here’s What You Need to Know
5% Time Saved: CEOs using AI-generated digital twins save around 5% of their time each year.
$500 Saved Per Minute: Hyper-realistic AI videos eliminate filming costs, saving roughly $500 per minute.
Global Reach: These AI avatars speak in 150+ languages—no filming, no stress, no re-recording.
Pre-Vetted, Pre-Approved: Content can be signed off before distribution, avoiding endless editing rounds.
But there's a risk you can't ignore.
