The participating companies pledge to follow the same standards of transparency, security, and data protection

Fifteen international tech giants have joined forces to launch the Trusted Tech Alliance, an initiative aimed at promoting transparency and trust across the tech sector.

The founding members are pledging to adhere to a set of shared principles to help foster a more open and reliable tech industry.

The initiative’s five founding principles, according to its website, are as follows:

 1-  Transparent Corporate Governance and Ethical Conduct

 2-   Operational Transparency, Secure Development, and Independent Assessment

 3-   Robust Supply Chain and Security Oversight

 4-  Open, Cooperative, Inclusive, and Resilient Digital Ecosystem

 5-  Respect for the Rule of Law and Data Protection

These principles, the members say, will help ease cross-border collaboration at a time when geopolitical tensions are eroding international trust.

Tech companies are under increasing scrutiny over their origin and political independence, while governments are increasingly pushing for technological self-sufficiency and digital sovereignty.

“This is a period of time when many governments and countries are feeling pressure to create stronger technology borders, to focus more on their own digital sovereignty,” said Microsoft President in an interview. “Our companies are working together to set this high standard to really make clear what the definition of trust is.”
