About this desk
Aisha Rahman is the byline of UAE Current's technology, AI and cybersecurity desk. Its beat includes national AI initiatives, digital government services, data protection, online scams, telecom changes, startups and consumer technology.
The desk tests claims rather than repeating product announcements. An article explains what a new service does, what information it collects, who regulates it and how it affects ordinary users.
Scam warnings are written to be acted on: what the message looks like, which authority has warned about it, and how to report it.
