The Global Trusted Tech (xGTT) Standard

Technology has immense potential to enhance the human condition, but it can also lead to unintended consequences and be weaponized by authoritarian regimes and malign actors. Ensuring the trustworthiness of technology is essential to preserving a free, open, secure and prosperous world.

ABOUT THE xGTT STANDARD

ABOUT THE xGTT STANDARD

The xGTT Standard is the world’s first unified framework for evaluating and labeling Trusted Technology.

It provides governments, companies, and partners with a shared, voluntary, market-driven benchmark for trust - enabling faster, more reliable collaboration across borders and sectors. Grounded in the Trusted Technology Doctrine, xGTT translates core principles such as integrity, accountability, transparency, and respect for human dignity and national sovereignty into operational standards that support real-world decision-making.

Development

Technology Development focuses on whether organizations innovate in ways that support predictable, rules-based commerce and long-term participation in trusted global markets.

Deployment

Technology Deployment assesses whether technologies are deployed in ways that support resilience, security, and interoperability among trusted partners.

Accountability

Accountability focuses on whether organizations are structured and operated in ways that enable confidence, transparency, and durable collaboration among trusted partners.
