about this event

The Online Safety Hack. Brought to you by GovTech Digital4Good, the Online Safety Hackathon brings students, mentors and public officers together to explore practical ways to make digital spaces safer. First time at a hackathon? Don't be shy, join us!

What should I build? A few interesting directions you could work on:

1. Trust, Commerce & Fraud — Build systems that make online transactions safer, reduce scams and detect fraud.

2. Gen AI Deception — Explore ways to recognise deepfakes, synthetic voices and other AI-generated deception.

3. Technology-Enabled Harms — Address cyberbullying, doxxing, harassment and non-consensual sharing.

4. Gen AI for Good :) — Use AI thoughtfully to support well-being, community safety and digital confidence.

Work on products that you personally feel strongly about and deeply understand! More information on the problem statements can be found at heyspot.app/hack.

A huge shoutout to our amazing partners: IMDA Digital For Life, GovTech, Kebun Baru, SMU AI Club.
