Deepfakes and Voice Cloning

Why the five-second scan has a new line: three seconds of audio clones a voice and one conference talk clones a face, so you verify the request, not the voice. The shape of a deepfake request (money, secrecy, urgency, a reason you can't call back); verifying through a channel you already have — the number in your contacts, a question only the real person can answer, the agreed word; why a face on a video call is not proof, with the Hong Kong case where every other person on the call was a deepfake; the three money rules a finance team agrees in advance; the cloned-voice "distress" call at home and the famous-face investment scam the FSCA warned about; what a deepfake can't do; and reporting every attempt.

The scenario

Thursday, 11:20 — a WhatsApp voice note from the managing director, overseas this week. It's his voice, exactly: a confidential deal, R1.9 million by three, and the CFO will confirm on a video call at one.

The habit this module drills

Verify the request — not the voice.

After this module you can

What this module evidences: ISO/IEC 27001:2022 clause 7.3 (awareness) and Annex A control A.6.3 (information security awareness, education and training); the staff-awareness and security duties in data-protection law (for example GDPR Articles 32 and 39). The quiz result is recorded against your account, and passing it earns this module’s dated certificate.
