Individuals (non trades) working in the energy sector who need to develop fundamental skills and competency in cybersecurity but do NOT work in specialized cybersecurity job roles.
Protecting Canada’s energy sector from cyber threats is of critical, national importance. Speaking in August of 2021, The Honourable Seamus O’Regan Jr, then Minister of Natural Resources said,
“Our lives have become increasingly digital which means the security threats we face are also becoming digital. We’re investing in cutting-edge technologies with universities and industry leaders to protect Canada’s energy sector from cyber threats and keep our critical infrastructure secure.”
The job of protecting Canada’s energy sector from these threats is the responsibility of every individual working in the sector.
Developing fundamental skills and competency in cybersecurity has become a ‘basic digital literacy’ for the 21st century. Begin your journey to acquiring these critical skills with our Cybersecurity for Energy microcredential, designed in partnership with expert practitioners working in the sector.
