I believe the concept of sharing intelligence is going to be increasingly important, and sharing intelligence across sectors is going to be something that will be very important to consider.
Within various industry sectors there are limitations in terms of information being shared. At Symcor we have a limited use case around providing the capability for our clients to do limited information sharing for the purpose of detecting fraud, not cyber-attacks—that's something we'd like to get to—but fraud. The intention is really to have a locked-down, controlled process that is very focused on the intent of that use case, which is to get ahead of those bad actors before the event, or the effect of that event, actually happens.
Certainly public-private partnerships are an area of discussion south of the border. Having a framework to be able to share that intelligence with that purpose will be increasingly important.
Overlaying that, however, is having strong privacy governance and oversight, because often there is this tension between security.... We need as much information as possible for the purpose of getting ahead of the bad actors quickly, but I think there is definitely a point in the middle that can be met. It's about enabling increased data sharing, but under a privacy governance umbrella.
