The need for safe and secure technology has never been more urgent.
The Oxford Programme for Cyber and Technology Policy (OxCTP) helps governments navigate the digital frontier by fostering the responsible adoption of emerging technologies. Through targeted research, stakeholder alignment, and real-world testing, OxCTP delivers evidence-based solutions that harness AI and other technologies for the public good.
The programme’s initial focus is the intersection of AI and cybersecurity, with a two-year research initiative funded by Open Philanthropy to explore how governments can collaborate with frontier AI organisations to protect advanced AI systems from cyber theft.
OxCTP will also convene leaders from across the technology and policy communities to facilitate dialogue, identify shared priorities, and foster a more nuanced approach to the governance of emerging technologies. Through the Global Tech Policy Seminar Series, the programme brings together academics, policymakers, and industry experts to address issues such as the evolving cyber landscape, data privacy, the risks of cloud concentration, and the role of AI in national security.
The Oxford Programme for Cyber and Technology Policy is co-directed by Professor Ciaran Martin and Dr Brianna Rosen.
