In the age of the internet and social media, the way people access and share information has transformed drastically. While this has democratized access to knowledge, it has also opened the door for malicious actors to spread disinformation and undermine democratic values.
The Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab), incubated by the Atlantic Council in 2016, is at the forefront of combating these threats. With a focus on disinformation, digital rights, and democracy, the DFRLab studies global information ecosystems and connective technologies. Through research, training, and collaboration, the DFRLab aims to build an informed network that combats disinformation and promotes digital rights.
As an action-oriented organization, DFRLab not only produces timely research but also trains others in the field to build resilient information ecosystems. By convening experts and stakeholders, they continue to lead the conversation on safeguarding democracy in the digital age.
