[ GUIDE · DEEPFAKE DETECTION ]

BUYER'SGUIDE.

When buying deepfake detection software, evaluate where it runs, whether results are explainable and reproducible, which media it covers, how evidence is handled and what proof the vendor can show. A pilot on your own samples is the most reliable test.

[ 01 ]

Deployment and data control

Ask whether it runs on-premise or air-gapped, what leaves your network and whether it needs licence or model servers.

[ 02 ]

Explainability and reproducibility

Ask whether findings point to evidence you can inspect, and whether another examiner can repeat the analysis from the report.

[ 03 ]

Coverage and integration

Check supported video, image, audio and document types, and the API and analyst console for your workflow.

[ 04 ]

Claims to question

Be cautious of single accuracy figures with no test conditions, and of any guarantee of detection.

[ 05 ]

Run a pilot

Provide your own samples under your handling rules and compare reports against known cases.
