The Government of Canada (GC) is continuing to make great strides in becoming a digital-first organization.
The organization is looking to improve the GC Information Technology (IT) infrastructure and the user experience by consolidating, modernizing, and standardizing where possible. Priorities to support the delivery of government-wide digital transformation include: Ensuring the Government’s network is secure, fast and reliable.
Providing public servants, the digital tools they need and that support a modern workplace.
Helping to ensure the health of government systems and the modernization of applications by moving data to the Cloud or modern data centres; and
Enabling government-wide transformations through the creation of standards, revised services, and a new funding model.
Infrastructure Security Operations (ISO) is responsible for planning, designing, building, operating and maintaining effective, efficient and responsive cyber and IT security infrastructure to protect GC data and technology assets. ISO delivers technical safeguards that protect the government network systems and services by detecting and preventing unauthorized access, misuse, modification and denial of network-accessible resources and data . ISO provides protection through perimeter/border defense services, intrusion detection and prevention services, wired/wireless protection services and web filtering services. End-point protection and security monitoring are done through anti-virus/malware services, end-point management services, event logging and auditing services, and compliance threat and vulnerability assessment infrastructure services.The ISO directorate also provides enterprise-level authentication services to both GC employees and external client communities such as Canadian citizens and businesses.
Enterprise Mandated Services comprise Internal and External Credential Management, Government of Canada Internal Credential Management services, Management of Identity, Credential Authentication, and Public Key Infrastructure.
