An important assertion is that the challenge of securing cyberspace transcends the abilities of any single entity and requires a radical shift in our approach in how: i) research is conducted, ii) cybersecurity researchers are educated, iii) new defendable systems are developed, and iv) effective defensive countermeasures are deployed. Our response draws upon extensive source material and our personal experiences as cybersecurity professionals contributing to the establishment of the VENUS Cybersecurity Corporation, a not-for-profit corporation that aims to make Canada a global leader in cybersecurity. We view the challenge to be global and transdisciplinary in nature and this article to be of relevance world-wide to senior decision makers, policy makers, managers, educators, strategists, futurists, scientists, technologists, and others interested in shaping the online world of the future.}, keywords = {Canada, challenges, countermeasures, cyber security, cybersafety, cybersecurity, cyberspace, detection, Internet of Things, leadership, mitigation, research, security}, issn = {1927-0321}, doi = {http://doi.org/10.22215/timreview/943}, url = {http://timreview.ca/article/943}, author = {Renaud Levesque and D{\textquoteright}Arcy Walsh and David Whyte} } @article {834, title = {The Online World of the Future: Safe, Productive, and Creative}, journal = {Technology Innovation Management Review}, volume = {4}, year = {2014}, month = {10/2014}, pages = {5-12}, publisher = {Talent First Network}, address = {Ottawa}, abstract = {A safer online world is required to attain higher levels of productivity and creativity. We offer a view of a future state of the online world that places safety, productivity, and creativity above all else. The online world envisaged for 2030 is safe (i.e., users communicate with accuracy and enduring confidence), productive (i.e., users make timely decisions that have an ongoing global effect), and creative (i.e., users can connect seemingly unrelated information online). The proposed view differs from other views of the future online world that are anchored around technology solutions, confrontation, deception, and personal or commercial gain. The following seven conditions characterize the proposed view of the online world: i) global-scale autonomous learning systems; ii) humans co-working with machines; iii) human factors that are authentic and transferrable; iv) global scale whole-brain communities; v) foundational knowledge that is authentic and transferrable; vi) timely productive communication; and vii) continuous technological adaptation. These conditions are expected to enable new social-behavioural, socio-technical, and organizational interaction models. }, keywords = {bisociation, cybersecurity, excludability, future vision, Industrial Internet, Internet, Internet of Everything, Internet of Things, online, productivity, rivalry, safety, security}, issn = {1927-0321}, doi = {http://doi.org/10.22215/timreview/834}, url = {http://timreview.ca/article/834}, author = {Tony Bailetti and Renaud Levesque and D{\textquoteright}Arcy Walsh} } @article {711, title = {Developing an Innovation Engine to Make Canada a Global Leader in Cybersecurity}, journal = {Technology Innovation Management Review}, volume = {3}, year = {2013}, month = {08/2013}, pages = {5-14}, publisher = {Talent First Network}, address = {Ottawa}, abstract = {An engine designed to convert innovation into a country{\textquoteright}s global leadership position in a specific product market is examined in this article, using Canada and cybersecurity as an example. Five entities are core to the innovation engine: an ecosystem, a project community, an external community, a platform, and a corporation. The ecosystem is the focus of innovation in firm-specific factors that determine outcomes in global competition; the project community is the focus of innovation in research and development; and the external community is the focus of innovation in resources produced and used by economic actors that operate outside of the focal product market. Strategic intent, governance, resource flows, and organizational agreements bind the five entities together. Operating the innovation engine in Canada is expected to improve the level and quality of prosperity, security, and capacity of Canadians, increase the number of Canadian-based companies that successfully compete globally in cybersecurity product markets, and better protect Canada{\textquoteright}s critical infrastructure. Researchers interested in learning how to create, implement, improve, and grow innovation engines will find this article interesting. The article will also be of interest to senior management teams in industry and government, chief information and technology officers, social and policy analysts, academics, and individual citizens who wish to learn how to secure cyberspace. }, keywords = {business ecosystem, cybersecurity, innovation engine, innovation in commercialization, innovation in research and development}, issn = {1927-0321}, doi = {http://doi.org/10.22215/timreview/711}, url = {http://timreview.ca/article/711}, author = {Tony Bailetti and Dan Craigen and David Hudson and Renaud Levesque and Stuart McKeen and D{\textquoteright}Arcy Walsh} }
