Partnership delivers real-time protection against AI voice fraud as deepfake threats surge across enterprise communications
ValidSoft, the global leader in real-time voice identity assurance, announced a strategic alliance with Reality Defender, the RSA Innovation Award-winning deepfake detection platform, to jointly address the growing threat of AI-generated audio in online communications. As attackers grow more sophisticated — in cloning voices, launching real-time synthetic calls, and exploiting vulnerable identity layers — this partnership sets a new standard for proactive defense of voice communications.
This strategic alliance follows OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s recent warnings about an impending AI-generated voice fraud crisis, especially for financial institutions. With the departure of Nuance and Amazon Connect Voice ID from the market, enterprises and governments face a dangerous gap in voice-based identity security — particularly in critical environments like online conferencing, contact centers, and help desks.

Together, the companies are closing this gap by launching a best-in-class, battle-tested solution which combines ValidSoft’s leading, patented Voice Identity Platform™, delivering real-time, passive voice biometric authentication and cryptographic voice assurance, with Reality Defender’s market-leading, API-first deepfake audio detection capabilities. The result: a seamless, multi-layered defense against real-time impersonation, fraud, and synthetic media attacks.
“We’re not just filling the void left by Nuance and Amazon — we’re redefining what secure voice identity looks like in the age of AI,” said Pat Carroll, CEO of ValidSoft. “This alliance enables organizations to protect every voice interaction with military-grade, patented identity assurance and unrivalled deepfake detection, all in real time.”

The concept for this alliance was born from a shared history and vision. ValidSoft CEO Pat Carroll and Reality Defender CEO and Co-Founder Ben Colman are both Goldman Sachs alumni, bringing decades of combined expertise in financial technology, security, and high-stakes global operations. Leveraging their shared backgrounds in building trust in mission-critical environments, Carroll and Colman designed a collaboration that directly addresses one of the most urgent challenges facing enterprises and governments today: securing the human voice in the AI era.
“The generative AI era demands next-generation defenses,” said Ben Colman, CEO and Co-Founder of Reality Defender. “By combining ValidSoft’s real-time voice identity assurance platform with Reality Defender’s AI-powered deepfake detection, we’re delivering a solution purpose-built for the threats of today and tomorrow.”
The technology is market-ready, and proven, with existing deployments across enterprises and government agencies where real-time identity verification and trust are paramount.
