NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Pindrop is redefining what it means to be a cybersecurity service provider in the age of generative AI. As voice cloning, deepfake video, and AI-driven impersonation attacks scale at unprecedented speed, increasing 1,300% across customer environments in the past year, traditional controls and static authentication methods are no longer enough. Pindrop’s Real Human + Right Human™ Platform, a continuous identity verification layer for real-time communications, answers three critical questions in milliseconds: Is this a machine? Is this a bad actor? Is this the right human?
For more than a decade, Pindrop has secured billions of interactions annually for some of the world’s largest institutions, including 7 of the top 10 U.S. banks, 5 of the top insurers, and the top three healthcare providers. Its AI-driven platform analyzes voice and video in real time to detect synthetic media, replay attacks, social engineering attempts, and human impersonation before fraud occurs. Customers have reduced fraud losses by up to 88%, saving tens of millions of dollars annually while simultaneously improving legitimate customer experience through passive, low-friction authentication.

In 2025, Pindrop expanded its leadership with the launch of Pulse for Meetings, bringing real-time deepfake detection and identity verification into live collaboration platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Webex. Pulse analyzes previously unmonitored digital conversations, audio, and visuals during meetings to detect cloned voices, manipulated avatars, and face swaps as they happen. With integrations and partnerships spanning Cisco, Zoom, BT Group, Verizon, Five9, Amazon Connect, Google Cloud, Genesys, and IntelePeer, Pindrop embeds its protection directly into enterprise and carrier infrastructure at global scale.

Pindrop’s differentiation lies in its research-driven foundation. With over 300 patents, and models trained on 1.5 billion real-world interactions annually, the company consistently leads industry benchmarks, including ASVspoof and the ACM Multimedia video deepfake detection challenge. Its R&D function is not a silo but the engine of continuous innovation, ensuring defenses evolve faster than emerging AI threats.

Unlike point solutions that address isolated fraud vectors, Pindrop is the only end-to-end platform solving the identity trust problem across channels. It has shifted the cybersecurity model from reactive to real-time protection, stopping fraud as conversations unfold rather than investigating damage after the fact.

As generative AI lowers the barrier to impersonation and misinformation, Pindrop provides the foundational trust infrastructure enterprises need to operate at the speed of AI, protecting organizations, safeguarding consumers, and restoring trust in every real-time communication.
