Digital Trust, FHNW School of Business

The Digital Trust research field focuses on cybersecurity & resilience, data privacy, governance, risk & compliance (GRC), information ethics, and related emerging technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing.

We are committed to making digital trust understandable, tangible, and effective—in organizations, in education, and in society. Our team brings together people from the fields of practice, technology, and research who share their knowledge, develop new approaches, and implement concrete solutions. With our ongoing projects—funded by Innosuisse, Horizon Europe, Erasmus+, Hasler, Movetia, and others—we are making an impact in science and practice today.

In addition to our work in university teaching, we design practical learning formats such as boot camps, elective courses, digital tools, and serious games. In this way, we strengthen the skills of learners and professionals in the field of digital trust. We also support students in projects and initiatives that address current challenges related to digital trust and take them further.
