With AI-generated scams, including voice impersonation and deepfakes, becoming a significant threat in wealth management, SureMark’s suite restores trust in digital communications. “Seeing is no longer believing, and hearing is no longer believing,” said Dr. W. Scott Stornetta, CEO of SureMark, during a CNBC Squawk Box appearance. “When you get a call from someone you trust, you can’t assume that it’s them. SureMark makes trust verifiable again.” The platform has been rigorously tested by early users to ensure reliability for both routine and high-stakes interactions.
SureMark’s platform provides:
Seamless Protection: Safeguards every client communication, from routine calls to major transactions.
Cryptographic Verification: Ensures secure identity validation across landline, mobile, video, and VoIP.

“Trust is the foundation of every investment conversation,” said Allen Lau, Co-founder and Operating Partner at Two Small Fish Ventures. “SureMark ensures that both our team and our investors can focus on building value, not fighting scams.” Jason Harris, CEO of Harris Investment Group, added, “SureMark helps us preserve trust so that our limited partners don’t have to worry about phone impersonations.”
The rise in impersonation scams targeting high-net-worth individuals and firms highlights the urgent need for robust solutions. “Impersonation scams don’t just harm individuals,” said Stornetta. “They put entire firms at risk. SureMark gives wealth managers and their clients confidence in every conversation.” By leveraging blockchain-inspired cryptographic techniques, SureMark proactively prevents fraudulent transfers and AI-driven scams, protecting both financial assets and firm reputations.
