AI-only approaches are not enough to stop deepfake AI and digital deception.

Explore why our multi-dimensional, digital forensics approach is a must for today’s and tomorrow’s threats.

Content Credential Analysis

We scan the content to verify authenticity, origin, and edits by identifying embedded signatures, watermarks, or C2PA credentials.

Pixel Analysis

We examine the content for pixel-level signals, compression artifacts, and inconsistencies from editing software.

Physical Analysis

We analyze the image’s physical environment for inconsistencies with the real world.

Provenance Analysis

We examine the recorded journey and packaging of content for additional context.

Semantic Analysis

We analyze the content for contextual meaning and coherence.

Human Signals Analysis

We inspect content for faces and other human attributes to run more targeted analysis.

Biometric Analysis

We conduct identity-specific analysis through face and voice modelling.

Behavioral Analysis

We compare patterns in human behavior and interactions to detect inconsistencies.

Environmental Analysis

We assess physical surroundings for context and 3D authenticity.
