At Digital Nation Summit Tokyo 2026<\/strong>, GSMA brought together leaders from government, telecoms, and technology to discuss how Japan and the wider APAC region can strengthen trust and security in an increasingly digital world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A key highlight was the panel session, \u201cBuilding Trust & Security in a Digital Society,\u201d<\/strong> moderated by Jeanette Whyte, Head of Public Policy and External Affairs of APAC, GSMA<\/strong>, which explored how cross-sector collaboration can help combat rising cyber threats and scams while supporting inclusive digital growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Five<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The discussion highlighted several key initiatives and priorities, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Active Cyber Defence (ACD)<\/strong> frameworks to strengthen proactive threat prevention<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The GSMA APAC Cross-Sector Anti-Scam Taskforce (ACAST)<\/strong> and the importance of industry collaboration<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • AI-powered tools<\/strong> for real-time threat detection and scam prevention<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Strong alignment with Japan\u2019s Digital Infrastructure Development Plan 2030<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    The panel featured insights from leaders across government and industry, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Kazumi Nishikawa (METI)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Koji Ouchi (MIC)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Dr. Koichi Moriyama (NTT DOCOMO)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Shota Tohara (Google Japan)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      As the world moves toward 6G and AI-native networks<\/strong>, one message stood out clearly: trust is the foundation of digital transformation.
