Japan’s "Data Free Flow with Trust" (DFFT) initiative was a key topic, promoting trusted, secure international data flows as essential for economic stability.
The third day wrapped up with a focus on societal security, underscoring the importance of cybersecurity in maintaining social stability and public trust. Sessions explored strategies for building resilient communities in the digital age, with experts from Keio University’s Cyber Security Research Center leading discussions on securing digital data flows and fostering public awareness around cybersecurity risks.
The event underscored the need for collaboration across borders and sectors to create a resilient digital ecosystem. It was an inspiring three days of knowledge-sharing and global alignment on strategies to protect our interconnected world.
