  "summary": "Deepfakes, digitally generated or manipulated images, audio recordings and videos created using artificial intelligence, pose a significant security concern for businesses. They can imitate a person's face, voice, or manner of speaking with convincing accuracy, creating risks that extend beyond misinformation to financial fraud, data theft, reputational damage, and legal liability. The technology can be used to impersonate senior executives, finance directors, or business partners, prompting employees to transfer funds or disclose confidential information. As synthetic media becomes easier to produce, businesses must understand how deepfakes operate, where corporate vulnerabilities arise, and the legal safeguards available to mitigate these risks.",
