Victor Beitner

I have been working in the technology industries for over 30 years and the last 21 have been focused on network security and cyber issues. My first remediation was in 1995 for an email compromise. Things haven’t changed much. When the Canadian Government announced the CyberSecure Canada Certification program, Cyber Security Canada was accepted and listed as a Certification Body. CyberSecure Canada is a federal cybersecurity certification program that aims to raise the cyber security baseline among Canadian SMEs, increase consumer confidence in the digital economy, promote international standardization and better position SMEs to compete globally. I am the past Chair of the Georgian College Protection, Security & Investigations Advisory Committee and holds a CISSP as well as other certifications and degrees, that allows me the ability to adapt quickly and confidently to any security situation. I am also regularly called upon for multi-media interviews by local and international media concerning cyber security issues. His in-depth knowledge and expertise in cyber security has featured him in print, radio and TV news organizations such as CTV News, Global News, The Toronto Star and The Toronto Sun. Victor is also a Ham radio operator (VA3OZZ). He enjoys giving back to the community with his volunteering work.
