About the project
About the Project AI-generated content, synthetic media, deepfakes, and automated misinformation are creating new risks for organizations. This DBA research opportunity focuses on the design of organizational protocols for disinformation security, digital trust, and corporate reputation protection. Possible research directions include synthetic media verification, authorship protocols, internal content governance, digital trust architectures, crisis response mechanisms, and the expansion of cybersecurity thinking into the protection of truth, authenticity, and organizational reputation. This opportunity is especially suited to experienced professionals in corporate communications, media, public relations, cybersecurity, compliance, legal affairs, investor relations, or publicly listed companies. Candidates may design and evaluate a digital trust protocol, verification process, or organizational response model. The expected contribution is a practical artefact that helps organizations protect stakeholder confidence in an environment where trust, authorship, and authenticity are increasingly vulnerable.
