Who We Are
Like you, we are citizens who seek peace and justice in cyberspace. Funded and supported by those who share our vision, we are a non-profit organization based in Geneva, Switzerland, independent of any political ideology, economic interest or religion. No one – individuals, industries or state actors – is beyond scrutiny. We are a driving force for accountability in cyberspace, for everyone, everywhere.
Assistance
We deliver and accelerate assistance at scale to the victims of cyberattacks. We help them increase their digital resilience and their capacity to respond to and recover from cyberattacks.
Analysis
We perform, facilitate, and coordinate collective and collaborative analysis, research and investigation into sophisticated cyberattacks. We close the accountability gap.
Advancement
We advance the role of international law and norms governing the behavior of state and non-state actors in cyberspace.
Foresight and Capacity Building
We analyze global cyber challenges and we forecast and investigate opportunities, risks and threats associated with emerging and disruptive technologies.
“As the Internet is the sum of all knowledge, we are the sum of our network.
We mobilize a global and diverse community to achieve peace in cyberspace.”
We mobilize a global and diverse community to achieve peace in cyberspace.”
