Confronting AI-Driven Impersonation in the Identity Ecosystem
As generative AI advances at unprecedented speed, deepfakes and synthetic identities are fundamentally altering the nature of fraud risk across financial services, fintech, government, payments, and digital platforms.
Techniques that once required significant resources are now widely accessible, enabling increasingly convincing impersonation at scale.
The Deepfake Summit brings together leaders across identity, fraud, privacy, and cybersecurity to examine how AI-powered impersonation is reshaping the identity lifecycle – and to explore what organisations must do to protect trust in an environment where seeing is no longer believing.
Why the Deepfake Summit? Why now?
· Deepfake-enabled fraud is accelerating faster than traditional detection and authentication controls can adapt.
· Payment modernisation – real-time payments, digital wallets, and identity-bound transactions – expands both opportunity and exposure.
· Regulatory expectations around AI governance, identity proofing, and consumer protection are increasing globally.
· No single organisation can solve these challenges alone; cross-industry collaboration is becoming essential.
As such, the Deepfake Summit is an expertly curated, highly interactive executive forum addressing one of the most urgent, and disruptive forces shaping modern payments and identity ecosystems: AI-generated deepfakes and synthetic identities.
These emerging threats challenge every assumption about secure onboarding, authentication, fraud mitigation, and trust. As financial services, fintech, and payments providers accelerate toward frictionless digital experiences, the risk surface expands dramatically.
Rooted in The Prism Project’s Resilient Trust Framework, the Summit delivers a concentrated, interdisciplinary conversation providing context, frameworks, trends, and strategic guidance for decision-makers across financial services, fintech, payments, government, and digital identity ecosystems to understand the threat landscape, deploy effective countermeasures, and prepare for an AI-driven future.
Who should attend?
The Summit is designed for senior leaders and practitioners across the identity and payments ecosystem, including:
· Financial institutions, issuers, payments networks
· Fintech platforms, neobanks, digital wallets
· Identity verification, biometrics, and authentication providers
· Cloud & platform providers
· Risk, fraud, compliance, cybersecurity leaders
· Policymakers, regulators, and trust framework organisations
Participants will engage in the conversations that will shape the future of digital identity:
· Connect with the innovators creating the technology, platforms, and solutions to detect and defend against the rapidly evolving threats of the impersonation ecosystem.
· Dive into discussions with industry leaders developing strategies and deploying solutions to counter the impacts of deepfakes, synthetic identities, and agentic-AI today and tomorrow.
· Help drive the policies, regulations, and standards being developed to ensure appropriate use of these technologies within a privacy-first, user-centric framework.
What are the key themes and takeaways?
The Deepfake Summit experience is designed to:
· Broaden and deepen understanding of the scale, sophistication, and systemic impact of deepfakes, synthetic identity, and agentic-AI across digital ecosystems.
· Translate threat intelligence into action, highlighting practical, deployable countermeasures spanning identity, biometrics, fraud prevention, governance, and privacy
· Equip leaders for an AI-driven future, aligning technology strategy, policy, and trust frameworks to build long-term resilience
