Let say there are a few areas where we would say that we have to be very careful about the increased risks. One thing is that with so many of us working from home, the fact is that it has changed our technology environment. We're mostly working outside of our organization's perimeter, so in terms of a lot of the defences we relied upon, many Canadians are now working from home and connecting directly to the Internet.
There are ways to try to minimize and mitigate those risks. Those are some of the things we published, but this is probably one of the biggest risks; it's the fact that we're now outside of the defensive perimeter that was set up. In some cases, we're not. For example, I never leave our defensive perimeter because of the way we have set up our remote access. We designed this to work remotely so that I could work from home and stay behind our full suite of cyber defences. In the majority of the government, it's like that.
For a lot of organizations, though, one of the things we have encouraged them to do is to make sure they are either doing something similar to the design we have for government or supplementing with other defences that are there.
That would be one of the major risks, but also, then, we're holding more data at home, and we're having conversations like this, although this is a public forum. There are things like that where we just need to be conscious of what we're doing as well.
