"NSA, US Federal Agencies Advise on Deepfake Threats"

The National Security Agency (NSA) and US federal agency partners have issued new guidance regarding deepfakes. This emerging threat may pose a cybersecurity challenge for National Security Systems (NSS), the Department of Defense (DoD), and Defense Industrial Base (DIB) organizations. They issued the Cybersecurity Information Sheet (CSI) "Contextualizing Deepfake Threats to Organizations" to help organizations identify, defend against, and respond to deepfake threats. The CSI recommends that organizations consider implementing several technologies to detect deepfakes and identify the origin of multimedia. These include real-time verification capabilities, passive detection techniques, and protection for the communications of high-priority officers. The recommendations for mitigating the impact of deepfakes include information sharing, planning and rehearsing responses to exploitation attempts, and training personnel. This article continues to discuss the new guidance on deepfake threats.
