Power to the People: The Encryption Summit

Time: 11:00 am- 11:50 am

Date: Thursday, October 19, 2023

We are living in a golden age of encryption – when more people have access to this key security technology than ever before. Encryption empowers people to connect with others, build community, and live their lives to the fullest. Yet an increasing number of governments around the world see encryption as an obstacle and are enacting new regulations that would put our privacy and security at risk.

As part of the 2023 Global Encryption Day, the Global Encryption Coalition Steering Committee is proud to host Power to the People: The Encryption Summit.’

This marquee event seeks to celebrate the many ways in which encryption makes us powerful, investigate the regulatory challenges facing encryption, and unite our community.

Join us to participate in a pivotal movement shaping the future of online privacy and security.

Title: Navigating Content Moderation In a World Embracing Encryption

Governments around the world are increasingly requiring communication service providers to moderate their users content to fight child pornography, terrorism and other crimes. They are imposing these mandates even on providers who cannot understand the content they carry because it is encrypted. In this session, we will discuss how companies can comply with these requirements without compromising the encryption they offer and the security it provides.
