What are deepfake threats?
Deepfake threats refer to the risks posed by synthetic media, such as manipulated videos or audio, that can mislead audiences. These threats have significantly increased, affecting various sectors including national security systems, the Department of Defense, and critical infrastructure. They can be used in disinformation campaigns to create confusion and spread false information on important issues.

These guidelines are designed to help organizations prepare for, identify, defend against, and respond to deepfake threats effectively.
How can organizations protect themselves from deepfake threats?
Organizations are encouraged to review the Cybersecurity Information Sheet for recommended steps and best practices. These include strategies for preparation, identification, and response to deepfake threats, which can help mitigate the risks associated with synthetic media.
