London, UK – 24th February 2026 – Infinigate UK & Ireland, the value-added distributor specialising in cybersecurity, secure networks and secure cloud, today announced a new vendor partnership with OpenOrigins, a decentralised  authentication platform designed to verify the authenticity of digital media and help organisations combat deepfakes and AI-generated content.

The partnership will initially focus on UK & Ireland, enabling Infinigate’s channel community to address an urgent and fast-growing challenge around establishing trust in the images and videos used across their organisation.

Industry analysts expect deepfakes to become mainstream in 2026, with the threat shifting from reputational damage to direct financial gain by criminals. As a result, organisations are increasing their investment in deepfake detection technologies, with spending predicted to rise by 40% in 2026 across industries and use cases. (forrester.com)

For channel partners, OpenOrigins opens up a practical, high-value conversation across a broad set of use cases, including:

  • Corporate communications and brand protection
  • Fraud prevention and evidential integrity workflows
  • Media and content production
  • Identity and trust assurance scenarios where visual proof matters


Ari Abelson, Co-Founder & CSO at OpenOrigins: “Safeguarding non-synthetic content by establishing provable provenance has become essential to protect businesses from corporate fraud. OpenOrigins’ approach overcomes the limitations of AI detectors and other reactive solutions that are no longer able to meet the escalating challenge. Partnering with a cybersecurity specialist such as Infinigate fits perfectly with our intent to build trust and security back into the Internet.”


Justin Griffiths, Regional VP at Infinigate

“OpenOrigins brings a smart and dependable way to protect data integrity at a time when authenticity is becoming a board-level concern. Together, we’ll help our partners take a provenance-led approach to trusted media, backed by the enablement, technical support and route-to-market services they expect from Infinigate while unlocking new growth opportunities.”
