SDGs
Description:
A sustainable digital trust environment is essential for the global digital economy. It effectively combats cybercrime, enhances the protection of critical infrastructure, and plays a vital role in promoting emerging digital industries such as e-commerce, fintech, and the Internet of Things. It also safeguards individual privacy and security. Exploring AI-powered cybersecurity frameworks can provide more effective solutions to address cyber threats, thereby strengthening digital trust and promoting the stability and sustainable development of the global digital economy. Integrating AI into cybersecurity frameworks offers a reliable new approach to enhancing digital trust. AI can analyze vast amounts of data in real-time, detect patterns, and predict potential threats, making it an effective tool for strengthening cyber protection and combating cybercrime. However, to fully leverage AI’s capabilities in cybersecurity, it is essential to address biases in AI models, ethical considerations, and continuously strengthen cooperation among governments, industries, and civil society. The workshop will invite cybersecurity experts, policymakers, business leaders, think-tank scholars, and young practitioners. Through presentations, interactive exchanges, and case studies, they will share experiences and resources, deepening their understanding of how AI-powered cybersecurity frameworks can provide stronger and more dynamic defense capabilities. The forum will serve as a platform for multi-stakeholders to jointly develop practical solutions, strategies, and standards to build a sustainable digital trust environment.
