The specifics of the deepfake protocol—including its technical methodology, validation testing, and implementation timeline—have not been detailed publicly. VIAC's expansion strategy into India and China was mentioned but remains underdeveloped in available reporting.
Practitioners should monitor this protocol's adoption rate and effectiveness as deepfake risks in digital evidence become routine in international arbitration. The sustained growth in VIAC's international caseload (81 percent of docket) reflects broader trends in cross-border dispute resolution and signals where institutional capacity will be tested. Counsel handling cases with digital evidence should track whether this or competing deepfake-detection tools become standard practice in arbitral proceedings.
