Deepfake Disruption: Building Trust in an AI Era

The Deepfake Summit: Resilient Trust™ in the Era of AI-Driven Fraud

This summit addresses the urgent challenges posed by AI-driven impersonation within the identity ecosystem.

Confronting AI-Driven Impersonation

As generative AI evolves at an unprecedented pace, deepfakes and synthetic identities are fundamentally transforming the landscape of fraud risk across various sectors, including financial services, fintech, government, payments, and digital platforms.

Techniques that once necessitated significant resources are now widely accessible, enabling increasingly convincing impersonation on a large scale.

Why the Deepfake Summit? Why Now?

  • Deepfake-enabled fraud is accelerating faster than traditional detection and authentication controls can adapt.
  • Payment modernization — such as real-time payments, digital wallets, and identity-bound transactions — expands both opportunity and exposure.
  • Global regulatory expectations around AI governance, identity proofing, and consumer protection are on the rise.
  • No single organization can tackle these challenges alone; cross-industry collaboration is becoming essential.

The Deepfake Summit serves as a meticulously curated, highly interactive executive forum addressing one of the most pressing and disruptive forces shaping modern payments and identity ecosystems: AI-generated deepfakes and synthetic identities.

Challenges and Opportunities

These emerging threats challenge every assumption about secure onboarding, authentication, fraud mitigation, and trust. As financial services, fintech, and payments providers work towards frictionless digital experiences, the risk surface expands dramatically.

Framework and Guidance

Rooted in The Prism Project’s Resilient Trust Framework, the summit offers a concentrated, interdisciplinary conversation providing context, frameworks, trends, and strategic guidance for decision-makers across financial services, fintech, payments, government, and digital identity ecosystems. This aims to:

  • Understand the threat landscape,
  • Deploy effective countermeasures,
  • Prepare for an AI-driven future.

Who Should Attend?

The summit is designed for senior leaders and practitioners within the identity and payments ecosystem, including:

  • Financial institutions, issuers, payments networks
  • Fintech platforms, neobanks, digital wallets
  • Identity verification, biometrics, and authentication providers
  • Cloud and platform providers
  • Risk, fraud, compliance, cybersecurity leaders
  • Policymakers, regulators, and trust framework organizations

Key Themes and Takeaways

The Deepfake Summit aims to:

  • Broaden and deepen understanding of the scale, sophistication, and systemic impact of deepfakes, synthetic identity, and agentic-AI across digital ecosystems.
  • Translate threat intelligence into action, highlighting practical, deployable countermeasures spanning identity, biometrics, fraud prevention, governance, and privacy.
  • Equip leaders for an AI-driven future, aligning technology strategy, policy, and trust frameworks to build long-term resilience.
