15. Tools & Utilities Reference

🖼️ Image Analysis

Common needs: detect manipulation, verify authenticity, inspect metadata.

  • Check EXIF metadata → ExifTool – extract, analyze, and compare image metadata fields.
  • Detect editing or cloning → Forensically – error level analysis, clone detection, noise analysis.
  • Sensor-level verification → Noiseprint – identify device PRNU fingerprint.
  • Verify text/logos in images → OCRmyPDF or Tesseract – OCR for suspicious text.

🎥 Video Verification

Common needs: analyze frames, detect deepfakes, validate context.

  • Extract keyframes / thumbnails → InVID Plugin – frame capture, reverse search, metadata inspection.
  • Inspect encoding & frames → FFmpeg – codec analysis, frame-by-frame breakdown.
  • Detect deepfake manipulation → SensityAI or Reality Defender – ML-based deepfake detection.
  • Cross-check weather & lighting → SunCalc + Meteostat – shadow and weather validation.

🔊 Audio Verification

Common needs: detect synthetic voices, validate background context, inspect signals.

  • Spectrogram & waveform inspection → Audacity – generate spectrograms, detect anomalies.
  • Phonetic & acoustic features → Praat – jitter, shimmer, pitch contour analysis.
  • Detect synthetic voices → Intel FakeCatcher or Deepware Scanner.
  • Validate ambient audio → Compare environmental sounds with expected context (traffic, birds, etc.).

📝 Textual Verification

Common needs: detect AI-generated text, check citations, validate style.

  • Spot AI-generated scaffolding → GLTR – token probability analysis.
  • Alternative AI detection → DetectGPT – detect likelihood of LLM text.
  • Stylometric comparison → JStylo – author attribution & writing style analysis.
  • Check fabricated citations → Manual validation + Crossref or Google Scholar.

🌍 Contextual & Cross-Modal Checks

Common needs: validate time, place, and consistency across modalities.

📊 Metadata & Technical Fingerprints

Common needs: check provenance, file signatures, hidden markers.

🛡️ OPSEC & Workflow Support

Common needs: maintain anonymity, secure comms, manage personas.
