ICoCA Webinar: Ensuring the Responsible Use of Technology in Private Security

 

 

 

I am delighted to pass along information about an upcoming webinar that may be of interest to those who focus on issues of tech innovation and the provision of private security services. It is sponsored by the International Code of Conduct Association (ICoCA). Information and links follow:

 
 
Tech is transforming private security – but at what cost?
While innovations like CCTV, AI and cybersecurity have the potential to significantly improve security services, this rapid expansion into the digital age also brings new risks. These technologies raise important questions about human rights, international humanitarian law (IHL), civil liberties and democracy.

Recognising the urgency of developing better governance and regulations, ICoCA is excited to convene security tech and legal experts for the second edition of its Responsible Security Forum (RSF) on 26 & 27 March 2025!

This virtual forum will focus on the responsible use of technology in private security. 26 March will be dedicated to a consultative workshop by invitation only, but 27 March is open to everyone and will bring together industry leaders, experts and policymakers to drive responsible security in the digital age.

Date: 27 March 2025
Time: 14:00-15:30 CET
Location: Online

As AI, cybersecurity, drones and automated intelligence reshape the industry, private security companies (PSCs) face new risks, regulatory gaps and ethical challenges. This 2nd RSF will explore:
  • How tech is reshaping private security operations
  • Risks to human rights and international law
  • Key governance and accountability challenges
  • Insights from the new ICoCA & ICT4peace Foundation Toolkit
