Para. 5.3.4Status unknownSaudi ArabiaRegulation
Issued by Saudi Data & AI Authority / NDMO
Maintain transparency by regularly publishing reports on the use and impact of your deep
fake technology, including measures taken to prevent misuse.
5.3.5 Integrate cybersecurity best practices, such as blockchain and cryptographic hashing, to
enhance content integrity and traceability. Ensure that immutable records are created, allowing
alterations to be detected and traced to their source, thereby strengthening accountability and
transparency.
5.4.1. Implement processes like sampling and data augmentation to identify and eliminate bi
ases in the data, and maintain comprehensive documentation of the data sources, preparation
steps, and validation processes
5.5.1 Integrate Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) mechanisms for continuous oversight during key
stages like training, validation, and deployment to ensure ethical decision-making and mitigate
risks associated with autonomous model behavior.
5.5.2 Develop and implement a comprehensive governance framework that includes role-based
access controls (RBAC), version control systems for models, and audit trails for all model iter
ations.
5.5.3 Set up an automated reporting system that uses log analysis and machine learning to de
tect and report any unauthorized or unethical use of deepfake technology.

5.5 Accountability and Responsibility
Deepfakes Guidelines: Mitigating risks while fostering innovation
5.6.1 Developers and content creators must ensure that their applications align with societal benefits,
avoiding applications that may harm individuals or society. Examples of socially beneficial uses include
educational or cultural projects, while unethical uses include fraud or disinformation campaigns. Any mis
use of the technology that violates existing laws, such as the PDPL or Anti-Cybercrime Law, may result in
legal consequences.
5.6.2 Develop AI algorithms (e.g., such as Amazon SageMaker, ELKI, PyOD) to detect and flag suspicious
activity patterns, such as rapid media dissemination or unusual engagement spikes, as cybercrimes may
result in imprisonment, fines, or both. Implement features to identify and restrict inauthentic accounts and
behavior using machine learning techniques
To ensure that the development and application of deepfake technology aligns with the highest ethical
standards, a risk assessment framework needs to be incorporated throughout the different stages from
development to deployment.
This framework is designed to address potential risks and enforce adherence to the key ethical principles
outline.
The detailed risk assessment framework, which outlines specific questions and mitigation strategies for
each phase, can be found in the appendix.

5.6 Social Responsibility
Deepfakes Guidelines: Mitigating risks while fostering innovation
Content creators must ensure that deepfake technology is used responsibly, adhering to ethical
standards, safeguarding personal data, and preventing misuse. Compliance with laws, respect
for social ethics, and alignment with correct values are imperative.
Given the profound societal impact of deepfakes, it is essential to steer content created towards
positive and constructive outputs.
The following requirements are designed to maintain public trust, prevent misuse, and address
risks such as imposter scams, non-consensual manipulation, disinformation, and propaganda.
