In the keynote, Kovacs outlined AVG’s mission to create a safer Internet for everyone.

In our modern connected world, the lives of consumers are more exposed now than ever before in history. A wide range of our actions online are monitored, tracked and scrutinized, not always towards benevolent ends.

AVG recently conducted a round of research with MEF which shows that more and more people are demanding trust, and it is becoming a real factor in decision making around technology.

To end, Kovacs issued a call to arms to challenge the existing model and create what he calls a Trust Revolution.

In the address, Gary outlined AVG’s vision of a safer Internet for everyone. To achieve that, we must understand how digital technology, especially mobile, has impacted the ideas of identity and privacy.

The modern Internet has given rise to an economy based on collecting and monetizing user information.

As a result, the lives of consumers are more exposed now than ever before in history. Their actions online are being watched, even scrutinized, and not necessarily towards benevolent ends

Consumer data shows that more and more people are demanding trust, actively considering it when they choose whether or not to adopt a technology.

If we want to facilitate further development of technology and digital economy, we need to challenge our thinking again. It’s time for another revolution, a Trust Revolution.
