Mission & Interests

Goals: The Global Cyber Alliance (GCA) is dedicated to secure the Internet by providing tools that are accessible to all Internet users and empower them to take action to be more secure. We achieve this mission through two main areas: Internet Integrity: focusing on working with the creators and operators of Internet infrastructure to identify and remediate widely deployed malicious systems. Here we make small changes that can benefit many. We focus on DNS security (Domain Trust) and IoT protection (AIDE - Automated IoT Defence Ecosystem). Capacity & Resilience: focusing on working with partners to improve the cybersecurity of Internet users and key communities, especially those that have been left behind by current approaches and those that have an outsized importance in the functioning of societies.
