Purdue's Krach Institute launches open standard for trusted technology companies

The Global Trusted Tech Standard assesses whether companies in AI and 14 other sectors act in line with democratic values.

The Krach Institute for Tech Diplomacy at Purdue has launched the Global Trusted Tech Standard (xGTT), a free, open standard for judging whether technology companies have earned trust, the institute announced.

Rather than technical performance, xGTT looks at a company's conduct and its fit with democratic values, including the rule of law, human rights, intellectual property, transparency and accountability. It covers 15 critical and emerging technology sectors, including AI, and is meant for governments, businesses and universities choosing partners and suppliers.
