Home // Posts // Deepfake Detection by Notaries Surges 45%
Deepfakes are no longer science fiction — they’re arriving in remote signing rooms and notarization sessions right now. Here’s how Secured Signing’s Realify is staying one step ahead.
Since Realify launched, usage among independent and in-house notaries, of the deepfake fraud prevention tool, has grown by more than 45% month on month. That’s not a vanity metric — it’s a signal. Professionals across every industry sector aren’t adopting deepfake detection because it sounds impressive. They’re adopting it because they’ve seen the threat up close, and they’re not willing to be caught off guard.
So what exactly are they protecting against?
Imagine you’ve spent weeks preparing a high-stakes legal document. The signing session is scheduled. Everyone connects via video — faces, voices, the whole professional picture. And then the ink (digital, of course) lands on the page.
But what if the person on the other side of that call was never really there?
With advances in AI-generated deepfake technology, this isn’t a hypothetical. Fraudsters can now fabricate convincing video and audio in real time, mimicking real individuals with alarming accuracy. For industries that rely on Remote Online Notarization (RON) and video-based document signing, the stakes have never been higher — and the threat has never been more sophisticated.
Identity fraud in digital transactions isn’t new. But deepfake technology has changed the nature of the threat entirely. Where once a fraudster needed a stolen document or a passable forged signature, today’s bad actors can deploy AI-generated faces and voices that pass a casual visual check — and in some cases, fool trained human observers.
The gap between what a human eye can detect and what AI can fabricate is widening — fast. The response can’t be better human judgment. It has to be better technology.
That’s exactly why Secured Signing built Realify — an AI-powered deepfake fraud prevention layer built directly into Video Signing, video confirmation, and Remote Online Notarization meetings. Before and during a signing or notarization meeting, Realify analyses the signer’s video and audio feed, scanning for the telltale markers of synthetic content that human eyes simply cannot catch.
Notaries like Michelle Douglas aren’t just using it — they’re changing how they work because of it:
“Since I adopted this feature in my remote online notarizations, my clients (title companies) and I feel more confident that we are dealing with who we say we are. This feature has changed the way I authenticate my clients’ true identity.” — Michelle, Notary Public
That 45% month on month growth makes sense when you hear feedback like this. Realify doesn’t just add technical security — it changes the psychological dynamic of an entire meeting. Both notary and signer enter the interaction knowing that an impartial, AI-powered system is independently verifying the encounter. That shared confidence is something no manual check can replicate.
Realify is the most visible line of defense but it sits within a much deeper architecture of identity verification. No single tool catches everything. The strength lies in the layers.
Together, these pillars create a verification chain that is exceptionally difficult to defeat, even with sophisticated tools.
Live Video Signing & RON: The Complete Picture
Every Secured Signing session is fully recorded, with the audio-video call securely attached to the signed document — creating a comprehensive, tamper-evident audit trail. If a transaction is ever challenged, the evidence is right there: timestamped, encrypted, and incontrovertible.
Realify sits at the front of this process. Verify the identity. Capture the session. Attach the record to the document. Every step accountable. Every party protected. Read more about these features here: A Multi-Layered Defense Against Signature Fraud
For a notary, a fraudulent signing isn’t just an inconvenience — it can mean professional liability, invalidated documents, and legal exposure. For a business, identity fraud in a signed contract can mean costly disputes, enforcement failures, and reputational damage that takes years to repair.
The tools to commit this fraud are already in the hands of bad actors. The tools to detect it need to be just as accessible to the professionals defending against them. That’s the gap Realify closes — and that’s why adoption is growing the way it is.
Because if you can’t trust who you’re signing with, you can’t trust what you’re signing.
As one of the few platforms to integrate deepfake detection natively into the signing workflow — not as a bolt-on, but as a first-class feature — Secured Signing has positioned itself at the frontier of what trust in a digital transaction means today and beyond.
