On 8 March, during ICANN85 in Mumbai, the Global Forum on Cyber Expertise (GFCE) convened a Triple-I capacity-building workshop, hosted by NIXI, focused on a question that is becoming increasingly urgent:
“How can we increase justifiable trust in the use of the Internet and e-mail, world-wide?”

IMPORTANT NEWS
About GFCE
As of 13 February 2026, the Global Forum on Cyber Expertise Foundation Board has formally informed the GFCE community that it decided to wind down the Foundation, and this decision has been communicated to the membership.
Consequently, the Foundation is now in a managed wind-down phase.
Currently, the GFCE community is seeking alternative ways forward as the mission of GFCE is still widely embraced by many of its members.
GNKS Consult will continue to organize GFCE Triple-I workshops as it has done since the outset, and as these workshops fulfil a need. It will work with the GFCE community but cannot longer fall back on the support by the GFCE Secretariat so will engage directly with all involved parties.
