Marginalized communities, particularly in the Global South, are disproportionately affected by cyber threats due to weaker infrastructure and limited access to cybersecurity resources. Their exclusion from global AI policy discussions perpetuates systemic vulnerabilities.
The growing cyber threat landscape driven by AI is not merely a technical issue but a systemic one, rooted in historical patterns of technological disruption and uneven global development.
Indigenous and cross-cultural perspectives offer valuable insights into trust, community, and ethics that can enrich cybersecurity frameworks. Marginalized voices must be included in global AI governance to address the structural inequalities that exacerbate digital vulnerabilities. By integrating scientific innovation with ethical and cultural wisdom, we can build a more resilient and inclusive digital future.
