ABSTRACT
One of the contributions of AI is the emergence of DeepFake (DF) technology. It has seen a spectacular rise in recent years, and it continues to grow in this meteoric fashion. With its capacity to create a “near-accurate” digital fabrication, this technology has raised concerns among individuals, businesses, and democracy. DF allows to fabricate media and create synthetic fake videos/images that can bring threat to the psychology of people, political stability, and business disruption. It is feared that malicious users with geopolitical aspirations or ideological beliefs or economically motivated natives or enterprises can be tempted to manipulate media chronicles using DFs that can cause both short- and long-term social harm. The constant news about the impact made by these DF videos on both individuals and organizations has raised various security challenges. This paper is a modest attempt to point out multiple threats and challenges posed by DF technology.
