Deel acquires deepfake-detection startup Clarity as fake hire problem grows

Most companies check a candidate’s identity once during recruitment, then hand them off to a separate IT system for device access and credentials. Deel’s argument is that the handoff itself is the weak point, because a fraudulent hire only needs to clear the first gate once. Clarity’s technology will now run continuously across sourcing, onboarding, device provisioning, and ongoing access management through Deel IT.
