How to Run a Deepfake Readiness Drill Before a Cloned Voice Calls Your Team

Cloned voices and synthetic video are now used in payment fraud, help desk compromises, and unauthorized access requests. A structured readiness drill allows security teams to identify verification gaps and weak points in authentication without real-world consequences. The article describes a scenario where a synthetic call impersonating a CFO requests urgent payment action.

Why it matters: Finance, operations, and IT support staff are targets for voice cloning attacks that bypass traditional verification; practitioners should design drills to test whether teams can detect and reject these calls.
