Shufti Deploys Four KYC and Deepfake Blind Spot Audit Engines on AWS Marketplace to Rescan Historic KYC Records

LONDON, U.K. — January 09, 2025 — Shufti, a global identity verification and compliance provider, announces the deployment of four KYC and deepfake blind spot audit tools on AWS Marketplace, enabling regulated institutions to rescan verified customers for deepfakes, face swaps, and document manipulation that earlier identity controls may have missed.

The four audit engines are delivered as Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) and are designed to run inside an organization’s AWS environment. This allows risk, compliance, and fraud teams to review historic KYC selfies and identity documents within their own cloud infrastructure, without routing sensitive data to external platforms or connecting new systems into live onboarding flows.

Many financial institutions, fintechs, gaming operators, and regulated digital platforms now face a growing challenge. Customers who were onboarded years ago were approved under very different fraud conditions. The rise of generative AI has made it far easier to create synthetic faces, altered selfies, and fabricated identity documents, leaving uncertainty around how resilient historic KYC approvals are against today’s threats.

The four AMIs focus on specific identity risk blind spots that commonly exist in historic onboarding data.

• The Liveness Detection AMI (Spoofed and Injected Sessions) is designed to review historic selfie and liveness captures for indicators of replayed, injected, or non-live inputs, reflecting how earlier controls may not have been built to detect modern spoofing techniques.
• The Deepfake Detection AMI (Manipulated Faces in KYC) is designed to rescan historic KYC selfies to detect deepfakes and face-swap manipulation that legacy identity verification systems may not have identified.
• The Document Deepfake AMI (AI-Generated IDs) provides a forensic audit of identity documents to identify AI-generated or fabricated IDs within historic onboarding data, analyzing documents as images rather than simple text records.
• The Document Originality AMI (Reuse and Edited Fields) is designed to highlight cases where genuine documents may have been reused or subtly altered across multiple accounts, including repeated base images and edited personal details.

Making these audit tools available through AWS Marketplace, Shufti provides a way for institutions to carry out in-cloud KYC and identity fraud reviews using their own AWS accounts and cloud security configuration, without introducing new integrations into production systems.

The release reflects growing demand for audit and assurance methods that allow organizations to validate historic identity decisions in response to rising deepfake, synthetic identity, and document fraud risk.

The four KYC and deepfake blind spot audit AMIs are now available on AWS Marketplace.
