Fujitsu Establishes International Consortium To Tackle Disinformation

The Consortium brings together the expertise and unique solutions of cutting-edge companies around the world to address social disruption caused by the spread of disinformation, misinformation, and attacks on AI, providing an innovative and... By integrating the cutting-edge technologies and insights of each company, we ensure the reliability of information and contribute to the realization of a healthy and resilient information society. In particular, the consortium focuses on technologies to combat disinformation and misinformation in the field of AI trust, and aims to spread them internationally as an infrastructure to counter high-risk events that can lead... We aim to deepen specific technical domains and create concrete applications and services from their results. Through these efforts, we will promote the social implementation and establishment of business models related to disinformation/misinformation countermeasures, AI trust, and AI security. We provide a "place for co-creation utilizing technology" and build a "pool of advanced technology (IP)" where intellectual property from participating companies is aggregated and shared.

Leveraging this pool, we will expand our activities globally through an "international approach," contributing to the realization of a society where information reliability is ensured. While the rapid evolution of generative AI has spurred the adoption of AI in many industries and provided economic benefits through business transformation, there is an urgent need to address the issues, risks, and... If left unaddressed, these issues could lead to significant economic losses, including the spread of misinformation, exploitation of AI system vulnerabilities, fines for legal violations due to non-compliance, and loss of business opportunities. The consortium believes that international collaboration is indispensable to provide comprehensive and sustainable solutions to these increasingly complex challenges. KAWASAKI, Japan, Dec 2, 2025 - (JCN Newswire) - Fujitsu Limited today announced the establishment of Frontria, an international consortium bringing together over 50 global organizations to collaboratively address the escalating challenges of AI-generated... This initiative aims to foster a healthy and resilient digital society by pooling cutting-edge technologies and expertise to enhance information reliability and ensure AI trustworthiness and security.

Frontria will serve as a dynamic platform for participating organizations to share their technological capabilities, identify challenges, articulate needs, and collectively drive risk mitigation and transformative solutions from a global perspective. Frontria aims to rapidly create concrete applications and services, and by quickly sharing information about their use cases, it will seek to promote the adoption of technological IP that enhances the reliability and safety... In fiscal year 2025, the consortium will commence activities with participating organizations from Japan, Europe, North America, India, Australia, and other regions. It will engage with organizations across diverse industries worldwide to expand the consortium's scale and create new use cases in sectors such as finance, insurance, media, entertainment, legal, and AI businesses. By the end of fiscal year 2026, the consortium aims to have over 100 global participating organizations, generating multiple IP business cases. Figure 1: Goal and aims of the consortium

Figure 2: "Frontria" website The international consortium "Frontria" website. Fujitsu has launched Frontria, a new international consortium designed to tackle one of the defining risks of the AI era: the surge of AI-generated disinformation, system vulnerabilities, and regulatory non-compliance. Announced on 2 December 2025, the initiative brings together over 50 global organisations at launch and aims to more than double that number by the end of fiscal year 2026. The goal is ambitious. Instead of treating fake content and unsafe AI as isolated technical problems, Frontria is positioned as a shared global infrastructure project—a platform where participants pool technologies, data, and expertise to develop practical tools that... Fujitsu frames the mission in straightforward terms: build a “trusted and secure digital society” in which AI innovation and information integrity can coexist.

Frontria’s launch lands at a moment when generative AI has made it easy to produce convincing text, audio, images, and video at scale. This has intensified existing issues—from fraud and deepfakes to synthetic political misinformation—into structural risks for economies and democracies. Fujitsu’s press release cites a striking number: AI-driven disinformation and online abuse caused an estimated ¥12.2 trillion in global economic losses in 2023. As generative AI advances, these costs are expected to rise sharply.
