Security and cyber programs for Canadian government clients
Government facilities operate under public scrutiny, fixed budgets and security obligations that span everything from front-counter safety to classified-data protection. Fortega delivers integrated programs for federal, provincial and municipal clients across Canada with disciplined documentation, accountable delivery and the discretion the sector expects.
Threats facing public-sector clients
Front-counter aggression toward public-facing employees is rising across municipal services, social assistance, courts and licensing offices. Duress and verified response are now baseline expectations.
Critical infrastructure — water, wastewater, transit, public works — increasingly faces cyber attack from both criminal and state-linked actors. Many sites still rely on flat networks and unsupported control systems.
Records, evidence and chain-of-custody requirements demand tamper-evident video and access logs that hold up in court and in freedom-of-information disclosures.
Procurement timelines and vendor scrutiny mean a security partner must produce documentation, references and compliance evidence as a matter of course — not as a one-off ask.
How Fortega delivers for government
We respond to public procurement with the documentation, references, financial disclosures and compliance evidence Canadian buyers require. Project management is disciplined and audit-friendly from kickoff to handover.
Designs respect classified, protected and unclassified zoning, with access control and video architecture that matches each zone's requirements. Cleared technicians are available when projects require them.
On the cyber side, we align programs to ITSG-33, NIST CSF and CCCS guidance, and segment OT networks for water, transit and public-works clients.
