Levesque, based in Taos, New Mexico, is urging builders, creators, and everyday users to take a more intentional role in shaping a safer digital future.
Why it matters
As cyberattacks and data breaches continue to rise, Levesque believes the tech industry and general public need to be more proactive in developing secure digital solutions and practices. His call for "thoughtful innovation" aims to shift the focus from reactive measures to a more holistic, user-centric approach to cybersecurity.
