Trust in Technology
Building trust in the technologies shaping our world
IEEE Standards help build confidence in the technologies shaping our world. From artificial intelligence and cybersecurity to data governance and interoperability, IEEE SA brings stakeholders together to develop trusted frameworks that enable transparency, security, safety, and responsible innovation.
Collaboration & Pre-Standardization
As technologies evolve, collaboration helps identify emerging challenges and opportunities before and alongside formal standards development. IEEE SA brings together experts and stakeholders to explore approaches that can help build greater trust in technology.
Responsible AI for Children
Global Trust Challenge
Partnering with other global institutions, providing a structure and incentives to more quickly bring implementable solutions that can support trust by combinging both technology and policy approaches, serving an important ecosystem enablement function.
Bridging the AI Transparency Gap: A Factsheet Framework for Healthcare Professionals
AI-based tools are increasingly integral to clinical practice, supporting diagnosis, triage, and treatment planning across diverse specialties. Yet healthcare professionals (HCP) often encounter a significant information gap when it comes to understanding how these systems are built, validated, and maintained.
New Foundations of Trust in Digital Communication, Interactions, and Transactions
Our motivation is to support the community to research, find, implement & recommend ways for better reliability, security and trust in communication, collaboration, interaction and transaction between two entities via digital means.
Trusted Decentralized Networking Towards 6G Era
Trusted decentralized networking is necessary for the 6G era, which will offer significant advancements in network capacity and data transmission rates. A decentralized system will be able to provide on-demand network connectivity, computing, and storage capabilities, supporting intelligent decision-making at different levels.
Zero Trust Cybersecurity for Health Technology Tools, Services, and Devices
Zero Trust is a security framework requiring all users, whether in or outside the organization’s network, to be authenticated, authorized, and continuously validated for security configuration and posture before being granted or keeping access to applications and data.
