Imagine receiving a call from your CEO, asking you to wire $100,000 to a supplier. The voice sounds exactly like them, but it’s actually a deepfake audio attack powered by AI.

Deepfake technology is now one of the most dangerous cyber threats, enabling criminals to impersonate executives, manipulate security systems, and spread misinformation at an unprecedented scale.

In this blog, we’ll explore how deepfake cyber threats work, real-world attacks, and how Radweber helps businesses defend against AI-powered fraud.

How Deepfake Attacks works.

1. Voice Deepfake Scams (Vishing)

• What happens? Attackers clone a person’s voice using AI and call employees, instructing them to transfer funds or share sensitive data.

• Real-world case: A company in the UK lost $243,000 when cybercriminals used deepfake voice cloning to impersonate a CEO and demand an urgent wire transfer.

2. Video Deepfakes for Social Engineering

• What happens? Hackers create fake videos of executives announcing fraudulent company policies or endorsing scams.

• Who’s at risk? Large organizations, political figures, and financial institutions.

• Example: Fake job scams featuring deepfaked executives trick people into sending money or personal details.

3. Bypassing Biometric Security

• What happens? Deepfake AI can replicate facial movements and voice patterns, tricking biometric authentication systems.

• Who’s at risk? Any business using face recognition or voice-based authentication.

• Example: Attackers use AI to bypass security checkpoints in banks and government agencies.
