Abstract
Apparatus and methods for using deepfakes defensively to detect fake, spoofed, and hoax phone calls and videoconferences are provided. A program may record a target individual reciting exemplary phrases. The program may analyze the recordings to create a baseline. The program may use deepfake algorithms to create exemplar deepfake audiovisual representations of the target individual. The program may store the data in a database. The program may analyze, in real-time, a phone call or videoconference to determine whether they are legitimate or illegitimate by comparing the audio or audiovisual contents of the phone call or videoconference with the exemplar deepfakes. When the program determines the phone call or videoconference is illegitimate, the program may terminate the call or videoconference and inform the recipient and others.
