Some of Canada’s top cybersecurity experts attended the second annual Waterloo Security Dialogue in June 2024 to share their cybersecurity concerns for the country and develop solutions to these growing threats. Hosted by the Centre for International Governance Innovation, the event brought together a diverse group of stakeholders from all sectors, including government, business and civil society. This special report recommends that building Canada’s cybersecurity resilience will require enhanced cooperation both within and across jurisdictions to help mitigate cyber risks, reduce the number and severity of cybersecurity incidents, and speed recovery. From elementary schoolchildren to the workforce, Canadians of all ages need to be prepared for and protected against cybersecurity threats by a strong local and national framework.
