Deepfake & wire-fraud defense for Naples businesses.Out-of-band, signed verification for the approvals a cloned voice or video would try to fake.
RankShield stops deepfake wire fraud by verifying the decision, not the voice. High-consequence approvals — a closing wire, a vendor payment, a credential reset — route through RankShield's own signed callback channel, which a cloned voice or video can't forge. Deny is the default, and every decision is sealed to a tamper-evident log you can verify yourself.
How does deepfake wire fraud work?
An attacker clones an executive's voice or face from public audio and video, then places an urgent, confidential call or video meeting to pressure a finance employee into wiring money. It works because the request sounds and looks like someone you trust. In 2024 a finance worker at one multinational was widely reported to have paid roughly $25 million after a deepfaked video call — and in Naples, where title, real-estate, and wealth firms move large sums remotely, the pattern fits the local economy uncomfortably well.
A finance staffer gets a video call from the “CFO” authorizing an urgent, confidential transfer. The face and voice are synthetic.
The transfer requires out-of-band verification through a signed channel a deepfake can't forge. The request is denied and sealed as proof.
A vendor or title email arrives with updated banking details, right before a closing, matching prior formatting and signatures.
Any change to payment details triggers signed callback verification on a known number before funds can move.
Once money is gone, the only record of who approved it is a log an attacker could quietly edit.
Every approval and denial is sealed to an RFC 6962 transparency log, so the record of what was authorized is provable, not editable.
How RankShield proves the decision.
The defense is verification, not detection. No app can reliably flag a cloned voice on a live call, so RankShield shifts the burden to a channel the attacker doesn't control: an out-of-band, post-quantum-signed confirmation, deny-by-default, with a tamper-evident receipt of every high-consequence decision.
