On the occasion of the launch, Jio Platforms CEO Kiran Thomas said that reliable, secure and transparent technology is necessary to accelerate digital development at the global level. Jio Platforms is proud to join the Trusted Tech Alliance to advance common standards and verifiable practices across the technology stack. Through this initiative, we want to work with global partners to build long-term trust in next-generation connectivity, cloud and AI systems. Microsoft Vice Chair and President Brad Smith said that in the current global environment, it is important for like-minded companies to come together to maintain trust and high standards in technology across borders. Ericsson CEO Borye Ekholm said that no single company or country can create a secure and reliable digital infrastructure alone; global cooperation is essential for this.
Agree on five principles
Under the Alliance, the member companies have agreed on five major principles. These include transparent corporate governance and ethical conduct, secure development processes and independent evaluation, strong supply chains and security oversight, fostering an open, collaborative and resilient digital ecosystem, and respect for data security along with the rule of law. Through these principles, companies will ensure that technology operates safely, reliably and responsibly, no matter where it is developed or used. Experts believe that Jio’s participation will give India an opportunity to play an active role in the creation of global digital standards. With this, cloud, 5G and AI based services in the country can get international level credibility and customer confidence regarding data security can be further strengthened.
