Verifiable Authenticity:
How Trust Over IP is Answering the Threat of AI Deep Fakes

As generative AI accelerates, it will become all but impossible to detect who and what is authentic online. The only solution is cryptographic proof: digital credentials that prove you are a real person, a real company, or that you have authored real content (sites, documents, photos, videos, etc.) The smartest AI in the world cannot fake such proofs.

Trust Over IP (ToIP) has been laying the foundation to put that capability in the hands of every person, organization, and government using the Internet. This webinar will share the latest developments in the ToIP model for decentralized digital trust infrastructure, including the Trust Spanning Protocol (TSP), the Trust Registry Query Protocol (TRQP), and governance models for digital trust ecosystems. We will also dive into what this means for specific ecosystems such as financial services, CBDCs, workforces, and even nation states like Bhutan and Switzerland.

ToIP Steering Committee Elections 2025

Because we have joined LFDT, ToIP Steering Committee members will no longer be based on funding status. Thus our current Steering Committee has created an election process to create the ToIP Steering Committee for 2025 and beyond.

There will be an election in December from a slate of candidates.
The slate of candidates will be created by each working group proposing a list of nominees. (Note: that the same person could be nominated by more that one working group. The nominee must have accepted the nomination.)
The ballot will be created from the slate of candidates based on the nominees provided by the working groups.  (The ballot may include the information about which WGs nominated candidates and a brief BIO of each candidate.)
The electorate will be all registered individual who have signed the ToIP JDF membership agreement.
More information on the election process will come out in November.

More information on the election process will come out in November.
Current Action items…
