Cyber Security

There is a growing challenge in protecting the internet against malicious actors. In working to make the internet more secure, it’s essential to support fundamental human rights when creating and deploying technology. By engaging a team of technical experts in our policy advocacy, Unwanted Witness develops advocates for the respect of fundamental rights while making critical communications infrastructure more secure. We work to empower individuals to take greater control of their own cybersecurity while serving as key technical translators for policymakers working to address a range of societal issues impacted by new technologies.

With the world becoming increasingly digital, access to the internet is now widely considered to be a necessity rather than a conscious decision. Regardless of choice, our lives revolve around technology. We believe that everybody should have equal opportunities to embrace this technology and develop as an integral part of our new digital world without suffering abuse, harassment or intimidation.
