Similar to last year, the 2020 event was attended by over 500 business and political leaders, economists and senior officials from private and public organizations, who were in Davos for the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting.

Hosted by WISeKey, the Cybersecurity Tech Accord panel discussions focused on the accomplishments and objectives of the coalition for promoting greater security online.

Cybersecurity Tech Accord (https://cybertechaccord.org/) is a public commitment among more than 130 global technology companies to protect, empower and improve security, stability and resilience of cyberspace. Since its inception, Cybersecurity Tech Accord’s signatories have supported initiatives on improving email and routing security, implemented Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance (DMARC) in their own operations, participated in global requests for comments on the UN’s new High Level Panel on Digital Cooperation, and endorsed the Paris Call for Trust and Security in Cyberspace. Additionally, the coalition has coordinated with like-minded organizations such as the Global Cyber Alliance, Internet Society, and Global Forum on Cyber Expertise.

The panel included: Renaud Deraison, Chief Technology Officer, Tenable; Amy Weaver, President, Legal & Corporate Affairs, General Counsel and Secretary Salesforce; Alissa Starzak, Head of Public Policy, Cloudflare; Tom Patterson, Chief Trust Officer, Unisys; Sanjay Poonen, Chief Operating Officer, VMWare; and moderator Carlos Moreira, Founder, CEO, WiseKey. These industry leaders provided a high-level overview of the priority initiatives the Cybersecurity Tech Accord has pursued in its first two years of existence, their respective visions for the twenty-first-century cybersecurity and discussed the need for industry leadership and responsibility in a new domain of conflict. Additionally, panel discussions focused on the intersection of cybersecurity, socioeconomic development and rights promotion around the world, in alignment with the UN’s sustainable development goals.

The @transhumancode roundtable co-moderated by Carlos Moreira and David Fergusson is now subject to a forthcoming TV series in USA and China and the book will be published in China in March. This year, the roundtable session mainly focused on the future of human sustainability with the rise of algorithmic technologies. Subject experts explored during the event how The transHuman Code platform coupled with AI agents, data mining, machine learning, and natural language search, will innovate the most responsible revolutionary technologies for our future.We all agree that it is a precarious balancing act between technology and humanity in the application of AI, blockchain, cybersecurity, IoT, data management, and robotics to the future of education, employment, communication, transportation, communities, security, government, food, finance, entertainment and health.Grounded in a human-centric foundation, The transHuman Code provides an ethical platform for developers, enablers and users of new technologies to prioritize keeping people at the center of gravity in the relationship between woman/man and machine. https://www.transhumancode.com/
