🚨 The Growing Threat of Deepfake Emergency Calls and How NG911 Can Stop Them 🚨
Imagine answering a 9-1-1 call from a terrified caller, only to discover later that the voice was completely AI-generated—a deepfake designed to manipulate emergency services. As artificial intelligence evolves, emergency communication centers (ECCs) are facing a new and dangerous wave of deception that could waste critical resources, disrupt response efforts, and even put lives at risk.
In this episode of TiPS: Today in Public Safety, Mark Fletcher (Fletch), ENP and VP of Public Safety at 911inform, explores:
✅ How deepfake technology is shifting from a nuisance to a national security risk
✅ The role of NG911 in detecting and stopping fraudulent emergency calls
✅ Whether punitive penalties can deter deepfake SWATTERS
✅ If STIR/SHAKEN is enough to prevent AI-driven call fraud
✅ The rise of ‘super SWATTERS’ and how they could cripple emergency response
✅ The ongoing race between hackers and public safety technology
