Although AI is being misused by criminals for malicious purposes, individuals and businesses can still leverage AI to identify deepfakes and minimize the chances of successful scams. Kaspersky shares solutions for users to protect themselves from deepfake scams:

AI content detection tools: These AI-generated content detection software programs use advanced AI algorithms to analyze and determine the extent to which image, video, and audio files have been edited.

AI content is watermarked: Watermarks serve as identifying marks in images, videos, etc., helping authors protect the copyright of their AI works. However, this tool can become a weapon against deepfakes because it can help trace the origin of the platform that created the AI.

Content traceability: Because AI collects vast amounts of data from various sources to create new content, this method aims to trace the origin of that content.
