The local picture

The cyber threat landscape in Halifax

Halifax anchors Atlantic Canada's growing ocean-tech and defence community, and that research-and-development work is exactly the kind of intellectual property foreign and criminal actors try to exfiltrate. The city's professional-services and university-linked organizations round out a wide, varied attack surface for a region that historically had limited access to round-the-clock security expertise. PIPEDA governs personal-information handling here, and defence-adjacent contracts frequently layer additional security requirements on top.
