* N.B. Security Day is 2 half-days: May 28-29, 2024: 9 am-12:30 pm
The Province organizes and hosts two “Security Day” events each year (spring and fall), free of charge.
Cybersecurity impacts all of us - professionally and personally.
That's why Security Day is open to everyone.
We encourage everyone to attend via webcast. This includes, but is not restricted to: government employees, broader public sector representatives, school districts, post secondary institutions, municipalities, crown corporations, and any individual interested in security.
Check out the notional agenda below and check back for updates.
