Vastav AI is an artificial intelligence-based deepfake detection system developed by Zero Defend Security.[1][2][3] Released in 2025, it is India's first deepfake detection technology, designed to analyze and verify digital media for authenticity.[1][4][5][6] The system detects AI-generated videos, images, and audio with a reported accuracy of 99%, providing forensic insights into manipulated content.[7][8][9][10][3][11][12]

Vastav AI employs advanced machine learning techniques, forensic analysis, and metadata inspection to distinguish between real and AI-generated content.[6] The platform is designed for use by law enforcement agencies, media organizations, cybersecurity firms, and individuals seeking to verify digital content integrity.[13][14]

Development

Vastav AI was developed as a response to the increasing prevalence of deepfake technology, which has been used in misinformation campaigns, digital fraud, and cyber threats. It was created under the leadership of Zero Defend Security, a cybersecurity firm specializing in threat intelligence, digital forensics, and AI-driven security solutions.[15][3][16]

The name Vastav is derived from the Hindi word for "Reality", signifying its core mission—to expose and counteract synthetic and misleading digital content.

Technology and features

Vastav AI utilizes a combination of deep learning models, neural networks, and forensic algorithms to analyze media files. Its primary features include:

  • Deepfake detection – Identifies AI-generated videos, images, and synthetic voice manipulations.
  • Heat maps – Highlights regions within images or videos that exhibit AI-generated artifacts.
  • Confidence scores – Provides probability-based ratings on content authenticity.
  • Metadata analysis – Extracts and examines hidden metadata to detect anomalies.
  • Real-time processing – Offers near-instantaneous results for digital forensic investigations.
  • Detailed reports – Generates downloadable reports for further review by forensic analysts.

Recognition and industry impact

Vastav AI was showcased at CIDECODE, a hackathon organized by CID Karnataka under PES University on March 8–9, 2025.[17][18] The project was awarded and received recognition for its potential in combating misinformation and cyber threats.[8][5][19][10]

According to a Radware and IBM cybersecurity report, deepfake attacks rank as the third most significant AI-driven cyber threat, following phishing and AI-powered malware creation, Deepfake fraud is surging, up 3000% in 2023[20][21]

Accessibility and deployment

Vastav AI is available through a cloud-based platform with the following access models:

  • Government and law enforcement agency – Free access granted for digital forensic investigations and cybercrime detection.[2][3][11]
  • Enterprise and individual users – Subscription-based access via pay-per-use credits.[13]
