Encryption is a Preventative Tool That Protects Children
Encryption’s role in our lives and its impact on the safety of children online are significant issues. In some countries, law enforcement has called to ban encryption to protect children from potential harm. While addressing this concern is crucial, we must do so without dismantling encryption, which is one of the most important tools we have for keeping children safe. Encryption safeguards children by protecting their information from cybercriminals, supporting child protection agencies in handling sensitive information, and more.
We make sure policy and technology developments support what the Internet needs to remain a global resource for everyone. Learn how you can get involved.
