NZTech Inform: Building a digital future we can trust
Kia ora,
Last week, ShadowTech25 gave hundreds of girls across Aotearoa the chance to visit leading tech workplaces. Check out the highlights in Waikato and Wellington, and with ShadowTech continuing this week, even more students will be exploring the possibilities of a tech career.
In other news, the integration of CERT NZ and the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) was completed, streamlining the way incidents are reported and managed. This makes it easier for organisations to get the help they need, faster.
The focus on security and trust is at the heart of this week’s Digital Trust Hui. With rapidly evolving cyber threats, building robust digital trust frameworks is more important than ever. The hui features international keynote speaker James Monaghan on digital identity and sovereignty in the age of AI, alongside expert insights from Deputy Government Chief Digital Officer Myles Ward on government digitisation and Deputy Privacy Commissioner Liz MacPherson on the development of Aotearoa’s Biometrics Code of Practice. If you’re in Wellington tomorrow, there’s a few last-minute tickets available here.
