Deepfake Technology: We Built a Deepfake in 90 Minutes [Video]

Summary

We made a convincing deepfake in 90 minutes using publicly available content and modern deepfake technology – and the result is alarming. This short clip from our ‘The Art of Deception’ webinar shows how little time, minimal skill and readily available tools (e.g. simple LinkedIn video downloads and browser-based voice cloning) can produce a believable fake that attackers can use for social engineering & impersonation.
Important: this video is a demonstration and cybersecurity warning, not a tutorial.
We do not provide step-by-step instructions.
The goal is to raise awareness about the speed and scale of the threat so organisations can act.

Time to create: a full, credible deepfake assembled in ~90 minutes
Tool accessibility: uses low-cost or free, browser-based services, no special hardware required
Attack surface: how deepfakes can be combined with voice cloning and phishing to bypass trust and verification
Organisational risk: why quick, targeted fakes are especially dangerous for HR, finance and execs
