How quickly can you verify a deepfake video during an active election?

For clients with an active election monitoring engagement, our rapid-response protocol targets triage delivery within 1 to 2 hours of flagging and full forensic report delivery within 6 to 12 hours for standard cases. For critical incidents in the 48 hours before polling, we operate an accelerated protocol — contact us to discuss SLAs for your specific election engagement.

Do you cover regional language content in Indian elections?

Yes. Our monitoring and analysis capabilities cover content in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, and Odia, among other Indian languages. Regional language audio and video are analyzed using the same forensic methodology as English-language content — linguistic content is not the primary object of analysis; the technical signals of synthetic media generation are.

Can your forensic reports be used to file complaints with the Election Commission?

Yes. Our forensic incident reports are structured to support complaint filing with the Election Commission of India under the Model Code of Conduct and relevant provisions of the Representation of the People Act. We can assist clients in preparing the technical sections of formal complaints.

What platforms do you monitor?

Our monitoring covers public content on X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and public Telegram channels. WhatsApp monitoring relies on forwarded content submitted to us directly, as WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption does not permit platform-level monitoring. We also monitor broadcast news clips submitted by clients or identified through our media tracking systems.

Can this service be used outside of formal election periods?

Yes. Political disinformation using synthetic media is not limited to formal election campaigns. We offer year-round monitoring for political organisations, government bodies, and media organisations that face continuous disinformation threats — structured as an ongoing retainer rather than an election-cycle engagement.

Media Integrity & Watermarking

Embed indestructible provenance into your content at the point of creation.

WHY THIS MATTERS

ONCE AUTHENTIC CONTENT LEAVES YOUR ORGANISATION, THERE IS NO WAY TO PROVE IT IS YOURS - UNLESS YOU MARKED IT BEFORE IT LEFT.

A broadcast organization produces authentic journalism. That journalism is distributed digitally, clipped, re-shared, and remixed across social media platforms. At some point in that distribution chain, a version emerges that has been subtly manipulated. Watermarking solves the attribution problem at its root. An invisible, indestructible mark embedded at the moment of creation travels with the file through every format conversion, compression, and re-upload - readable by any party with access to the verification key. This is not just a content protection problem. It is an evidentiary problem. Broadcasters, courts, and regulatory bodies need a reliable mechanism for establishing whether a piece of media is the original authenticated version or a downstream manipulation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about media integrity + watermarking

Hear what our clients say about our IT and security solutions

What happens to the watermark when a video is compressed or re-uploaded to social media?

Our watermarking technology is specifically designed to survive the compression and re-encoding applied by social media platforms, video streaming services, and broadcast transmission systems. The watermark is perceptually invisible and embedded at the signal level - not in metadata that is stripped on upload. Verification after social media processing remains reliable.

Is the watermark visible to viewers?

No. The watermark is perceptually transparent - it is invisible to the human eye and does not affect the quality or appearance of the content. It exists entirely at the signal level, below the threshold of visual or auditory perception.

Can a watermark be removed by an attacker?

A sophisticated attacker with knowledge of the specific watermarking algorithm and access to the original content could potentially attempt watermark removal. However, any attempt to remove the watermark - whether successful or not - causes characteristic distortions to the content that are themselves forensically detectable. Attempted watermark removal is evidence of tampering.

Does watermarking replace deepfake detection?

No - they are complementary. Watermarking proves provenance for content that was created authentically and marked at creation. Deepfake detection analyzes content of unknown provenance to determine whether it has been manipulated. For organizations producing original content, combining both provides the strongest possible media integrity framework.

Is this service relevant for social media platforms and aggregators?

Yes. We offer API-based watermark verification that can be integrated into platform content moderation workflows - allowing platforms to automatically check whether submitted content carries a verified provenance mark and flag content that appears to have been manipulated post-creation.
