Update on the Global Signal Exchange | Global Anti-Scam Summit London 2025

Date of Event: 26–27 March 2025
Event: Global Anti-Scam Summit London 2025
At the Global Anti-Scam Summit London 2025 , a dedicated session introduced the Global Signal Exchange (GSE)—a cross-sector initiative developed by the Global Anti-Scam Alliance and DNS Research Federation to transform how cybercrime data is shared.
Jorij Abraham opened the discussion by outlining how the GSE aims to break the cycle of "whack-a-mole" enforcement, connecting existing national and commercial intelligence-sharing networks into a global ecosystem. The platform, which grew from 50 million to 135 million signals in just three months, lets vetted partners control exactly who receives their data, allowing tailored sharing across law enforcement, platforms, or other stakeholders.
André Naumann of Google described the GSE as a global, multi-stakeholder, cross-sector platform designed to scale real-time collaboration. He highlighted the value of trusted data-sharing to prevent harm before it reaches users.
Raul Burgos from Meta echoed this, noting that while many current initiatives are bilateral or industry-specific, the GSE is the first to offer truly global and cross-industry collaboration. He explained how early signals shared by Google have already supported successful investigations, reinforcing the importance of quality and scalability.
Netcraft CEO Ryan Woodley described the GSE as “multi-player whack-a-mole,” enabling coordinated responses to emerging threats. He stressed the importance of networked collaboration to undermine the profitability of scam operations at scale.
Jakob Bring Truelsen of Punktum dk, whose registry ranked among the safest globally, spoke about his organisation’s drive to maintain high security standards and use GSE insights to further reduce abuse across the .dk domain space.
Together, the panellists showcased how real-time, responsible data sharing is building a smarter global defence against scams and cybercrime.
