Threat Intelligence
We research deepfake fraud, synthetic media detection, and AI-enabled social engineering. Everything we publish comes from direct work with security, fraud, and IT teams who are dealing with these threats today.
Where the content comes from
Built from direct engagement with security and fraud practitioners, not secondary sources.
How we write
Every article describes how an attack or detection actually works. No hype, no filler.
Who this is for
Security leads, fraud investigators, and IT decision-makers who need clear, usable signal.
What we cover
Deepfake and Synthetic Media
How face swaps, voice clones, and video forgeries are produced, and where detection is actually possible.
Voice and Video Fraud
Real-time impersonation over calls and video, from first contact through to financial escalation.
Social Engineering Arcs
The sequence attackers use to move targets through a decision chain: authority, urgency, isolation, ask.
Defender Playbooks
Detection frameworks, verification workflows, and policy controls mapped to real enterprise threat scenarios.
Live-Call Detection
How AI detection works during a call in real time, including how verdicts are generated and surfaced.
Real Incidents and Case Analysis
Documented attacks broken down by stage, method, and the points where they could have been stopped.
How we work
01
We start with practitioners
Our research is grounded in direct conversation with the security and fraud teams who are managing these threats right now, not pulled from press releases or vendor reports.
02
We describe mechanisms, not opinions
Every article is structured around how something works: the attack sequence, the detection surface, the decision point. We let the structure carry the weight, not the adjectives.
03
We review against our own detection research
Before anything publishes, it gets checked against Diopter’s internal research to make sure the technical framing holds up.
