Bridging the Digital Divide The Impact of Regulatory Standards on Under-resourced Areas

Current regulatory standards may inadvertently exacerbate the digital divide by setting security benchmarks that under-resourced areas find challenging to meet. This can limit access to advanced telecommunication technologies in these regions, posing a dilemma between enhancing security and promoting digital inclusivity. Innovative policy solutions are needed to bridge this gap, ensuring that security enhancements do not come at the expense of connectivity.
