Industry committee  That was the statement given by the government at the time.

Industry committee  We are regularly working with the research partners across the government, including all of the health sector, to make sure that we're providing the most up-to-date cybersecurity advice so that defences continue to be right at the cutting edge.

Industry committee  We've been involved in working on all matters of cybersecurity with the research areas.

Industry committee  Yes, that is correct, absolutely. We continue to advise on all aspects, although the majority of activity we have seen is related to cybercrime.

Industry committee  Typically, when there is a report of some type of breach, our first action is to really look at how we can somehow do containment versus some type of attribution, meaning looking for the actor behind it. We always assume that it's the most sophisticated actor possible and that th

Industry committee  There have been instances of cyber-incidents in health care-related fields, research and development organizations. We've intervened in a small number in terms of responding to the incident and giving advice and guidance. The majority of our activity, though, has been focused o

Industry committee  The Government of Canada defences are something that we have integrated into the ongoing operations. The way the government has been able to layer its defences over the last decade as we've built them out, it really is to proactively stop any malicious activity. There haven't bee

Industry committee  Our assessment with regard to cybercriminals is that it really is about financial gain. They're looking to see what they can leverage.

Industry committee  I've been alerted to where I was. Thank you. I'm sorry about that. Technology affects us all. In coordination with our industry partners and the international work of cybersecurity organizations, we have contributed to removing of fraudulent sites, and I talked about the protect

Industry committee  Good afternoon, Madam Chair and committee members. Thank you for the invitation to appear today, from my dining room, to discuss pandemic-related cyber-fraud. I am Scott Jones and I am the head of the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security at the Communications Security Establishmen

Public Safety committee  Yes.

Public Safety committee  With OSFI's role in the regulatory space.... We certainly work with them, but one of the key things for us is that in the cyber centre, by not having a regulatory function, we can be turned to earlier. We obviously support a broader government, so we do work with OSFI. We try to

Public Safety committee  We're hoping that they will call us. We've made our information available, but right now they don't have any mandatory reason to report to us.

Public Safety committee  As far as I know, there would be no mandatory reporting for anything that's outside of that regulated space. We do get a number of reports from businesses that are looking for help.

Public Safety committee  One of the things we mentioned is the cyber-threat assessment, but we've also been working closely with businesses about the supply chain and how they're applying security constraints throughout their supply chain. For a lot of the bigger incidents, it tends to be a breach as y
