A Consortium focusing on TRUST for our Digital Life
The Trust in Digital Life Consortium is a new initiative that aims, over the course of two years, to set out a vision for trustworthy products relating to information and communications technology (ICT), including devices, applications, services, and infrastructures. Central to this vision shall be a recognition of the importance of the rule of law, security, and privacy and other core democratic freedoms in contributing to trustworthiness. The TDL Partnership will translate this vision into an agenda for research and innovation, placing particular emphasis on transparency and accountability. In the process, the TDL Partnership will coordinate with other initiatives as it takes an inventory of emergent digital technologies that can be combined to implement the vision, and it will engage in a broad dialogue. By presenting scenarios, or use cases, Members will illustrate how combinations of trustworthy ICT-related products can give effect to specific public policy goals.
