The growing digital divide is a major global concern, according to the Global Risks Landscape 2021 report published by the World Economic Forum.
Here’s an extract from the report:
“COVID-19 has accelerated the Fourth Industrial Revolution, expanding the digitalisation of human interaction, e-commerce, online education and remote work. These shifts will transform society long after the pandemic and promise huge benefits – the ability to telework and rapid vaccine development are two examples – but they also risk exacerbating and creating inequalities. Respondents to the GRPS rated “digital inequality” as a critical short-term threat.
A widening digital gap can worsen societal fractures and undermine prospects for an inclusive recovery. Progress towards digital inclusivity is threatened by growing digital dependency, rapidly accelerating automation, information suppression and manipulation, gaps in technology regulation and gaps in technology skills and capabilities.”
Tricerion’s authentication solution using Neurographic passwords has been designed to make accessing devices and internet services safe and simple for all, helping to break down barriers to digital inclusion.
We have applied science, technology innovation and business expertise to develop a patent protected software solution to enable frictionless, secure mutual authentication.
