ZeroFox and Reality Defender have partnered to embed detection of AI-generated voice, video, and images directly into ZeroFox’s external threat protection platform. The integration adds multimodal synthetic-media verdicts to the workflow security teams already use to find and act on threats to their organizations.
Under the partnership, Reality Defender’s RealAPI feeds detection results into ZeroFox’s discover, validate, and disrupt process. When the system flags suspected synthetic content, the verdict appears natively in the ZeroFox platform, where analysts can review it, escalate it, document it, and pursue takedown without leaving their existing investigation tools. RealAPI returns assessments across AI-generated voice, manipulated video, and fabricated images.
The companies are positioning the combined offering against impersonation and fraud built on synthetic media. Examples cited include executives impersonated on earnings calls, brands undermined by AI-generated campaigns, and social engineering attacks that use cloned voices or faces to deceive employees and customers.
“From executives being impersonated on earnings calls to brands being undermined by AI-generated campaigns, threat actors are manufacturing digital realities,” said David Muse, CEO of ZeroFox. Ben Colman, co-founder and CEO of Reality Defender, said the goal is earlier intervention: “Most security teams catch the synthetic video after it is circulated. The security teams working with ZeroFox catch it before the takedown.”
The deal extends Reality Defender’s strategy of distributing its detection models through platforms enterprises already operate. The company has worked with Charm Security to embed deepfake detection across voice, image, and text, and with Orange Business to bring synthetic-media detection into enterprise communications. It has also drawn on ElevenLabs expertise to detect synthetic voices.
For ZeroFox, the integration brings synthetic-media analysis into a platform built around monitoring an organization’s external attack surface, including social media, domains, and the open and dark web. Rather than treating deepfake detection as a separate tool, the companies are folding it into the same pipeline analysts use to triage and take down other external threats.
