As the conversations surrounding Canadian sovereignty, national security and stability grow, so do questions about how we can protect the technology being developed here at home. What does foreign interference look like in practice? How does sensitive information fall into the wrong hands? And what do Canadian technology companies need to know to navigate an increasingly complex global security landscape?
Join former CSIS intelligence officer and author Andrew Kirsch and industry experts for an inside look at intellectual property theft, espionage and foreign interference.
