Problem Statement
There is an explosive rise in voice-based phishing (vishing) and deepfake impersonation attacks, where criminals call citizens pretending to be banks, telecoms, government, or family members to steal sensitive information or money.
Arabic-speaking users, especially Egyptian dialect speakers — are heavily targeted due to low awareness and the absence of specialized security tools designed for the region.
At the same time, organizations such as banks, telecoms, and government entities struggle to protect their customers from these attacks once calls leave secure channels. There is no real-time Arabic solution that detects malicious speech, identifies sensitive data requests, and alerts users before damage occurs — resulting in financial loss, stress, loss of trust, and increased cyber-risk at national level.
Proposed Solution
Tahquq is a real-time voice-phishing defense platform that protects both organizations and citizens from fraudulent calls and deepfake impersonation.
The system converts the call to text securely, analyzes speech intent, detects sensitive-data extraction attempts, and identifies deepfake-style impersonation signals. If fraud risk is detected, the system alerts the user instantly before any money or data is lost.
The platform includes:
- B2B enterprise layer, for banks, telecoms & national security partners
- B2C mobile app, protects citizens during real phone calls
- Arabic dialect-trained security dataset, optimized for Egyptian & regional users
- Tahquq acts as a national cyber-defense layer for human communication, strengthening trust and resilience across society.
