ALL CYBER?
hosted by YTL
supported by CGI and the Délégation Générale du Québec à Munich

The event brings together professionals from the worlds of politics/administration, business, and science. Our panelits will focus on the danger cyberthreats pose on companies as well as democratic institutions. Recent events such as the multi-day network disruption at Global Affairs Canada, which officials have labelled a “cyber attack”, underline the necessity of addressing this issue in greater depth. Germany’s and Canada’s transatlantic partnership and shared values offer a variety of opportunities to work on these issues.
Due to rapid developments, Québec and Bavaria, as provinces/federal states in a federally organized country, must develop their own cybersecurity strategies just like sovereign states. Therefore, they are actively addressing this topic in various ways. For example, the government of Québec has established a separate ministry for this portfolio. Likewise, Bavaria has its own ministry for digital affairs and draws on existing business expertise in this field and on locally developed solutions in the cybersecurity hub of Munich.
Our partners for this event, CGI – an IT consultancy headquartered in Montreal – and the Délégation Générale du Québec à Munich bring these different perspectives to the table.
