FORT MEADE, Md. – The National Security Agency (NSA) and U.S. federal agency partners have issued new advice on a synthetic media threat known as deepfakes. This emerging threat could present a cybersecurity challenge for National Security Systems (NSS), the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), and Defense Industrial Base (DIB) organizations.
They released the joint Cybersecurity Information Sheet (CSI) “Contextualizing Deepfake Threats to Organizations” to help organizations identify, defend against, and respond to deepfake threats. NSA authored the CSI with contributions from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).
