New Cyber Incident Reporting Rules for Canadian Organizations
New Cyber Incident Reporting Rules for Canadian Organizations
MNP can help organizations prepare for new cyber gecurity regulations governing mandatory breach reporting, effective November 1, 2018.
An amendment to the Digital Privacy Act (DPA) and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) – the Breach of Security Safeguards Regulations will require all Canadian organizations (or organizations which collect, use or disclose personal information as part of their commercial activity in Canada) to report data breaches both to federal regulators and affected parties.

Whether you’re concerned about your resilience to a cyber security threat or need to revise your incident response guidelines to align with new regulations, our team can help you assess, prioritize and implement a practical and effective information security program.
