Thank you, Chair.
My thanks to Madam O'Brien, Monsieur Bard, and Mr. Vickers for being here.
What most of us will be concentrating on, I think, is information you can provide on cyber-threats to the computer side of things. We're going to be talking to some law enforcement agencies over the course of the next few meetings to assess the threat Anonymous might pose beyond the precinct here in Parliament. So most of my comments will be directed to Monsieur Bard, although I would invite commentary from all of you.
Thank you, Madam O'Brien, for answering some of the questions I had in your opening statements.
First, given that no one can put security protocols or provisions in place that would render a system completely bullet-proof, I'd like to know right now, in your considered opinion, how vulnerable are we? How vulnerable are we if Anonymous wants to hack in? Secondly, do you have any plans to increase security provisions beyond what we currently have in the parliamentary precinct? Lastly, would you have any recommendations for our systems beyond the parliamentary precinct? I'm thinking specifically about our constituency offices.
One at a time, please, give us your assessment of how vulnerable we are right now, and then tell us what security provisions might be put in place.
