Digital technology is becoming ubiquitous in our daily lives, shaping how we communicate, work, and interact. To build trust in technology, its design, development, and deployment must ensure security and safety. A sustainable digital future relies on frameworks that protect both systems and users.

This conference aims to explore the intersection between digital technology, crime, and the law. Digital technology serves as a powerful tool for detecting, investigating, and preventing crime, enabling both private actors and law enforcement agencies to combat illicit activity. But at the same time, it presents opportunities for bad actors to perpetrate crime, from cyberattacks to online fraud.

Developing a framework for digital trust is critical to addressing these challenges and for supporting broader digital transformation. Using interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral approaches, the conference examines how trust can be established and maintained.

The programme will feature six panels, each contributing to building capacity and exploring strategies to enhance security, safety, and trust in digital ecosystems.
