Their client base includes Canadian federal agencies such as CSIS, CSE, CATSA, RCMP, National Defence, and various government departments. The company's technical team includes former military and defense specialists, enterprise architects, and networking specialists with expertise in data-centric security, zero trust security, and cross domain solutions.
