About Keio University’s 11th International Cybersecurity Symposium
Keio University’s 11th International Cybersecurity Symposium will focus on the theme of “From Digital
Social Security to Digital National Security: Trust to Accomplish Safety and Security”. Topics discussed
during the symposium will cover the reality that no one nation nor one company can deal with global
challenges. To address these multi-stakeholder issues in cyber, like-minded and trusted government-
industry-academia leaders will need to collaborate together for digital trust from social security level to
national security level.
