Enhancing Digital Identity Verification
A Strategic Framework Against AI-Driven Identity Fraud
Abstract
The proliferation of AI-generated deepfakes has escalated threats of identity fraud in digital communications. This paper examines existing identity verification methods, introduces a strategic framework employing layered defenses to significantly increase attacker complexity, and proposes integrating cryptographic visual signatures alongside traditional verification methods. By analyzing attacker-defender dynamics using game theory, and referencing contemporary adversarial economics literature, we demonstrate the practical effectiveness of combining multiple verification modalities to deter identity fraud.
