<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">ICT is the common thread tying together all walks of life. It is at the heart of innovation in areas as diverse as energy management, transportation, healthcare, education and financial
 services, and ‘always-on’ network access has been a welcome driver of economic growth and social development. The ICT ecosystem has become a facility we can no longer do without, making it essential to ensure that users of ICTs may trust in the Information

 IoT, and the interconnection of all types of objects – from vehicles to streetlights and household appliances – gives rise to unprecedented implications for data security, the reliability of critical infrastructure and the privacy and safety of the world’s
 citizens. Given the borderless nature of the network, addressing concerns around security is not only a national priority; it is inherently global.

 in the ICT context as well as innovations embedding trust into ICT ecosystems and infrastructures to bring greater certainty, confidence and predictability to our interactions within the Information Society.
