Quantum computing is advancing toward a point where today's encryption could fail, exposing years of stored data. While post-quantum defenses are emerging, experts warn that hackers are already stockpiling sensitive information for future decryption.
As quantum computing advances, the race to secure the internet is becoming urgent. Experts at EuroDIG 2026 warned that only coordinated, multistakeholder action can accelerate post-quantum cryptography deployment before existing encryption becomes dangerously obsolete.
Community networks could become a crucial pillar of Africa's digital sovereignty, extending connectivity while giving underserved communities greater ownership, resilience, technical capacity, and influence over the infrastructure and services that increasingly shape economic opportunity.
Cybercriminals are becoming a major force in the domain-name market, driving an estimated one-fifth of new gTLD registrations in 2025 and exposing how commercial incentives, weak enforcement, and scale continue to fuel online abuse.
Domains and DNS underpin modern business operations, yet security gaps remain widespread. CSC's latest research shows why stronger domain protections are essential to resilience, helping companies reduce disruption, safeguard trust, and maintain continuity when attacks strike.
New data on DNS abuse reveals most malicious domains remain active beyond 24 hours, while a handful of registrars host the bulk of infrastructure, leaving India's population of first-generation internet users uniquely exposed to fraud.
As AI agents automate phishing, impersonation and domain abuse at machine scale, the Brand Registry Group argues that dotBrand domains are evolving from marketing assets into trust infrastructure underpinning cybersecurity, identity and interactions across the internet.
As power grids depend on microsecond precision, states must treat time synchronization as sovereign infrastructure, hardening satellite, fiber and orbital defenses against hybrid attacks that could trigger catastrophic blackouts through resilient sovereign time defense frameworks.
As AI reshapes the digital world, online safety depends on balancing smarter protection with growing risks. From cybersecurity to privacy concerns, understanding AI's role can help users stay secure, informed, and resilient online.
Fake news spreads quickly online, fueling distrust, manipulation, and conflict. As AI-generated content grows more sophisticated, media literacy, fact-checking, and vigilance are essential to protecting online safety and preserving trust in information.
