Cloud Service Provider Information Technology Security Assessment Process (ITSM.50.100)

The purpose of this document is to describe CCCS’s Cloud Service Provider (CSP) Information Technology Security (ITS) Assessment Program. The objective of the CSP ITS Assessment Program is to assist Government of Canada (GC) departments and agencies in their evaluation of CSP services being procured for use by the GC. The resulting assessments will show whether the subject CSP’s security processes and controls meet the GC public cloud security requirements for information and services up to Protected B, Medium Integrity, and Medium Availability (PB/M/M) as published by the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat

Guidance on the Security Categorization of Cloud-Based Services (ITSP.50.103)

This document is part of a suite of documents that the Cyber Centre has developed to help secure cloud-based services. Security categorization, the selection of a security control profile, and the selection of a cloud deployment model and a cloud service model are the first three steps of the Cloud Security Risk Management approach. This approach is defined in ITSM.50.062 Cloud Security Risk Management.

Guidance on Cloud Service Cryptography (ITSP.50.106)

"Cloud computing has the potential to provide your organization with flexible, on-demand, scalable, and self-service information technology (IT) provisioning. To deliver this potential, it is imperative that we address the security and privacy dimensions of cloud computing. Cryptography is one of the main pillars enabling security and privacy in cloud computing.

It plays an essential role in enabling cloud services such as authentication, secure access to cloud workloads, secure data storage, and secure data exchange.

The objective of this security guidance document is to help your organization understand the cryptographic considerations for cloud computing. This document, and its appendices, reviews cryptographic concepts and use cases for cloud computing, provides guidance for key management, and provides cryptographic guidance for database workloads and endpoint devices."

RADARSAT Constellation Mission / Sentinel-1 Sea Ice Motion (RCMS1SIM)

Monitoring of sea ice dynamics is of vital importance to our overall understanding of how the Arctic cryosphere is responding to changes in the Earth's climate. With the recent launch of the RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) in 2019 and the continuing operation of the Sentinel-1 (S1) fleet, these spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) platforms provide routine coverage of the pan-Arctic domain with their all-weather, cloud-penetrating imaging systems. Operating on overlapping pairs of images from these satellites, the Environment and Climate Change Canada Automated Sea Ice Tracking System (ECCC-ASITS) routinely monitors sea ice motion across the pan-Arctic domain. The findings of this analysis are summarized in the attached publication (Howell et al., 2022; see “Associated Publication” in data links).

Sea ice motion tracked by ECCC-ASITS is used to generate RCM/S1 Sea Ice Motion (RCMS1SIM) products for the pan-Arctic domain. These products provide information on sea ice velocity (speed and direction) as well as an estimate of uncertainty. There are currently two product lines; the first being generated on the 25km Equal-Area Scalable Earth Grid (EASE-Grid; https://nsidc.org/data/ease) v1.0 specification for a 7-day temporal window, and the second being generated on the 6.25km EASE-Grid v2.0 specification for a 3-day temporal window. Both products are available from March 2020 to present and are updated daily with a 2-day lag. These data are provided in Esri Shapefile (zip-compressed) and Network Common Data Form (NetCDF) data formats to support the widest-possible number of visualization and analysis use-cases. Further technical details on the products and variables within can be found in the documentation stored with the data.

Canadian Air and Precipitation Monitoring Network (CAPMoN)

The Canadian Air and Precipitation Monitoring Network (CAPMoN), operated by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), is designed to study the regional patterns and trends of atmospheric pollutants such as acid rain, smog, particulate matter and mercury, in both air and precipitation. The network began operating in 1983. CAPMoN updated and replaced two older networks known as the Canadian Network for Sampling Precipitation (CANSAP) and the Air and Precipitation Network (APN). The integration of APN as part of CAPMoN extended the data record as far back as 1978.
The Network was originally designed to help Canadians understand the sources and impacts of acid rain. This included integrated measurements of wet deposition (through rain or snow) and (inferential) dry deposition, as well as the ambient concentrations of acid-forming gases and particles. The regionally representative sites required to understand the sources and how long range transport impacts the Canadian environment have proven invaluable for a wide range of atmospheric issues.

Chronic toxicity of flame retardants in aquatic organisms

The toxicity and modes of action of prioritized flame retardants were evaluated in aquatic organisms. The effects of the organophosphorous-containing flame retardant tris (2-butoxyethyl) phosphate (TBOEP) were measured in Daphnia magna after chronic (21-d) and multigenerational exposure (3 generations) as part of a multi-level biological approach including specific gene transcription measured by qRT-PCR, enzyme activity, and life-history endpoints (i.e., survival, growth and reproduction). The effects of two emerging brominated flame retardants, 1,2-bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxy)ethane (BTBPE) and 2-ethylhexyl-2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB) were measured in diet exposed juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after 48-h and 28-d of exposure. Gene transcription was measured by RNA-sequencing and qRT-PCR at the end of the exposure, as well as specific protein biomarker activity.

Cyber Threat Bulletin: Impact of COVID-19 on Cyber Threats to the Health Sector

On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) a global pandemic. In a previous Cyber Threat Bulletin, we assessed that cyber threat actors have taken advantage of this context to conduct a range of cyber threat activities. The health sector—which we define as including public health institutions, hospitals and other front-line medical providers, research organizations, and pharmaceutical and medical equipment companies—is being targeted by both cyber criminals and state-sponsored cyber threat actors. The Cyber Centre assesses that in Canada and many other countries health sector organizations almost certainly face increased threats to their cyber security due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
