Cloned voices and synthetic video calls now show up in payment fraud, help desk resets, and access requests. A structured drill shows security teams exactly where verification breaks down, while nothing is at stake.

Editorial Analysis

Why it matters

As voice-cloning tools commoditise, enterprises without tested verification workflows face growing risk of BEC-style fraud that bypasses traditional email-based controls.
