From the blurred lines between AI and cybersecurity to the proliferation of scams and deep fakes eroding public trust, the digital landscape is undergoing seismic shifts. It is imperative for stakeholders to come together to address modern security issues, rebuild trust, and chart a secure, inclusive digital future.

The conversation on fostering trust in the digital age will also take on an extended lens this year as novel concepts of inclusion are explored, and address how prioritising consumer protection as a design fundamental is essential for shaping our collective digital destiny.
