Webinar: The Art of Deception: Fight Back Against the Fakes

We’ve all seen how easily deepfakes can fool even the most experienced teams. Now it’s time to talk about how to fight back. 

Deepfakes and AI-driven manipulation have evolved fast. They’re now more realistic & accessible than ever and increasingly used to exploit trust. 

Attackers can clone voices and fabricate entire conversations using tools anyone can download from places like Hugging Face or GitHub. Traditional awareness training alone can’t keep up. 

Are you confident you could verify what’s real and respond effectively when something feels “off”? 

In this live session, Codestone and CloudGuard move beyond basic awareness and into real-world detection and defence. Our cybersecurity experts will demonstrate how today’s deepfakes are used in attacks, what detection tools can (and can’t) do and the steps organisations should take to reduce risk across people, processes and technology. 

Don’t just trust what you see. Learn how to validate it. 

Join us live and discover how to detect and defend against the fakes. 

 

What you’ll learn: 

  • Live deepfake demonstration and how attackers weaponise synthetic audio/video in real-world attacks 
  • Practical techniques to verify authenticity in real time, even under pressure 
  • Side-by-side demos of detection tools, showing what they catch and what they miss 
  • Post-incident response guidance: how to contain damage, report internally and prevent recurrence 

Why this matters — right now 

Scope: Scattered Spider impersonated a Sys Admin employee using sophisticated voice authentication to execute access, lateral movement & a severe ransomware-based attack. 

Impact: M&S have publicly stated the impact will be in the region of £300M, with weekly losses of £40M confirmed during the outage.  

When one impersonated voice can cost hundreds of millions, recognising what’s real and what isn’t has never been more important.
