Seeking Digital Trust (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218757304)

In an era defined by artificial intelligence, cyber threats, and regulatory scrutiny, trust has become the most valuable - and most fragile - asset any organization possesses. Seeking Digital Trust examines how boards, executives, and leaders across the many disciplines can protect that trust while navigating unprecedented digital risk.

Through vivid scenarios and real-world composites, the book reveals how failures in silos-whether legal, cybersecurity, data, or culture-can cascade into crises that jeopardize reputation, compliance, and resilience. It introduces the eight pillars of The Digital Risk Alliance (TheDRA)-Legal & Regulatory Affairs, Cybersecurity, Risk & Resilience, Privacy & Ethics, Data Integrity & Governance, Emerging Technologies, Talent & Culture, and Board & Executive Accountability-as a framework for building cross-functional collaboration.

Rather than offering abstract theory, the book provides a structured lens to compare roles, connect themes, and explore how different leaders confront shared challenges. Readers will gain practical insights into:

• Why traditional approaches to risk and compliance are no longer sufficient.
• How AI, deepfakes, and data manipulation reshape board-level accountability.
• What it takes to create a culture of integrity and resilience across silos.
• The critical questions boards and executives must ask in their "moment of truth."

Seeking Digital Trust is both a wake-up call and a roadmap. It challenges leaders to move beyond checklists and compliance, toward governing with foresight, collaboration, and integrity. For boards, CxOs, and professionals in legal, risk, data, and technology roles, this is an essential guide to safeguarding trust in the digital age.
