Exposure mapping
Identify roles, channels, vendors, executives, and high-consequence requests most likely to be abused.
Framework
A practical deepfake readiness assessment framework
A deepfake readiness assessment should measure whether people, controls, and response teams can make safe decisions when synthetic voice, video, messaging, or email creates pressure to act.

Readiness is more than spotting a fake
Recognition
Measure whether participants pause when a familiar-looking or familiar-sounding request feels unusual.
Verification
Test use of independent, pre-approved verification paths rather than replying within the attacker-controlled channel.
Reporting
Assess whether suspicious activity reaches security, fraud, or management teams quickly enough to matter.
Response coordination
Check whether teams can triage, preserve evidence, contain impact, and communicate clearly.
Governance evidence
Maintain authorization, consent, scope, scenario, and improvement records for audit and leadership review.
How Deceptiment applies the framework
Deceptiment starts with the business decisions an attacker would try to influence, then designs governed simulations around those decisions. The goal is to produce defensible evidence: what happened, how people responded, which controls worked, and what should be improved.
This framework is useful for security awareness teams, fraud risk teams, SOC leaders, cyber-risk owners, and executives who need a practical view of readiness beyond tool claims.
Convert the framework into a live assessment
Run a controlled baseline across the roles and channels that matter most.
