UN cybercrime treaty set to be signed in Hanoi this weekend — global digital-risk focus
Around 60 countries are preparing to sign a landmark treaty this weekend in Hanoi aimed at combating cyber-crimes that cost the global economy trillions of dollars annually. The agreement, brokered by the United Nations, will cover cross-border cyber-fraud, data-heists, malicious AI-powered attacks and digital infrastructure resilience. The decision has market implications: heightened regulation in the cyber space may drive increased spending on cybersecurity firms and shift investor interest toward digital-risk-mitigation plays.
