Next week’s 47th ASEAN Summit in Kuala Lumpur — the largest in the bloc’s history — will bring together over 12,000 delegates and global leaders including President Donald Trump, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, and Singapore’s Prime Minister Lawrence Wong. Behind the diplomacy lies an invisible web of encrypted communications managing more than 500 meetings in real time. Powered by BlackBerry, these systems shield sensitive exchanges from interception and ensure operational continuity. 

Jonathan Jackson, Senior Director for APAC at BlackBerry joins The Breakfast Show to  discuss how ASEAN nations are modernising diplomatic coordination and crisis communications to meet converging threats, from cyber espionage to climate-driven disruptions.
