“Face Value: A Deepfake Crisis” is an interactive crisis simulation designed to immerse cybersecurity professionals in a high-stakes scenario triggered by a deepfake attack. As artificial intelligence continues to evolve, deepfakes are becoming increasingly sophisticated, posing a serious threat to organizational security and reputation. In this 50-minute session, participants will take on critical C-level roles—such as CEO, CISO, CIO, Legal, HR, and Communications—while navigating a cyber crisis caused by a misleading deepfake video.
The simulation starts with a deepfake of the CEO issuing an urgent financial request, setting off a series of internal and external challenges. Participants will make real-time decisions on everything from verifying the CEO’s identity to handling media fallout and complying with regulatory requirements. Interactive polls and live decision-making create an engaging environment where attendees can evaluate their crisis management skills under pressure.
This session is designed to provide hands-on experience with the complexities of deepfake-driven crises and their impact on communication, compliance, and organizational operations. By the end, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how to address these emerging threats, improve cross-functional collaboration, and manage crises effectively in today’s rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape.
