About Us

DefendMyRep exists because the harm is real—and the response hasn’t caught up.

Founded by B. Harrison Smith, an educator, filmmaker, and AI expert, DefendMyRep was created to address the growing gap between rapidly advancing technology and the systems meant to protect people. Backed by a multidisciplinary team spanning AI, education, cybercrime law enforcement, legal expertise, technology, and trauma-informed support, we focus on one thing: helping people reclaim control when deepfake harm strikes.

We don’t traffic in fear. We build clarity, protection, and power.
