Advancing critical infrastructure cybersecurity in Canada

Canada's critical infrastructure operators are entering a new era of cyber accountability. Following Royal Assent of Bill C-8, the Critical Cyber Systems Protection Act (CCSPA) establishes a framework for protecting cyber systems that support services essential to national security and public safety. Organizations must now strengthen cybersecurity programs, manage supply-chain risks, improve incident readiness and maintain evidence of ongoing compliance.

This whitepaper explores the implications of the CCSPA for operational technology (OT) environments and outlines practical approaches for building cyber resilience. Learn how leading organizations are improving visibility into critical systems, strengthening governance, enhancing auditability and creating cybersecurity programs that support both compliance and long-term operational resilience.

How can critical infrastructure organizations strengthen cybersecurity resilience while preparing for new regulatory requirements under the CCSPA?
