Both celebrities and everyday people are becoming targets of deepfake attacks, so how can we protect ourselves?

Former FBI Special Agent and Founding Partner at NAXO Chris Tarbell explains what this new technology is and how it works. He later provides tips for listeners to be able to detect deepfakes and protect themselves from falling victim.
