Cyber
The fifth domain
Secure Cyberspace Operations
The Cyber Domain crosses and interacts with all domains—Land, Sea, Air and Space. For decades, General Dynamics has supported and delivered solutions into all of these domains. Our approach to cyberspace remains the same—to develop solutions that assure cyber mission success.
Cybersecurity: Defence and the Cloud
Devices, sensors, and networks collect and connect data across multi-domain mission types. Migrating this critical data infrastructure to a cloud environment would create a digital ecosystem, allowing commanders and soldiers to access this information promptly and efficiently.
In this Canadian Chamber of Commerce blog, Alkarim Amlani, Director of Cyber Programs, shares the challenges of bringing government level infrastructure to the cloud.
Mission Reimagined: Navigating the CAF’s Digital Transformation
Hear from Victor Khoo, Chief Engineer and Alkarim Amlani, Director of Cyber Programs, General Dynamics Mission Systems—Canada, in this informative Vanguard Magazine podcast as they dive deep into the intricacies of army digitization and offer key considerations when migrating critical data infrastructure to a cloud environment.
TRANSFORMATIONAL CYBER RESILIENCY
We develop, deliver and support transformational commercial off the shelf (COTS) cyber defence solutions—applying deep domain knowledge and security expertise to deliver cyber protection for large defence and security agencies, as well as government departments and critical infrastructure owners.
OVERCOME CYBERSPACE COMPLEXITIES
From joint and combined to deployed and critical, no matter the complexity of your operation, we have the expertise to improve overall decision support and security of the cyberspace you are operating in.
Our capabilities include the ability to detect, analyze and respond to threats with integrated defensive cyber solutions that provide reliable contextual analysis specific to military, government and critical infrastructure domains. As a result: decision makers are informed to implement defensive cyber courses of action for continued mission assurance and secure operations.
OPERATIONAL INTENT THAT DRIVES TECHNOLOGY
No two cyber threats are the same—nor do they affect organizations in the same way. As such, no two cyber operations require the same network security posture.
That is why—to successfully implement effective cyber defence capability—we focus first on the desired outcome of your operation or mission.
Then, based on collaboration, end user engagement and cyber domain knowledge, our dedicated cyber and IT systems engineering and integration teams adapt the cyber defence product capability to protect your mission or critical operation.
STREAMLINED ENGINEERING & INTEGRATION
General Dynamics Missions Systems–Canada is a trusted technology-agnostic capability provider with an extensive understanding of multi-layer network security and interoperability with allied and other government networks. As such, we are industry leaders in scalability and flexibility when it comes to designing cyber and IT end-to-end solutions for your specific needs.
By adopting an open systems approach, we harness the innovation of proven business partners—selecting, validating and configuring operationally relevant COTS tools into a developed cyber defence product to meet specific capability needs and niche requirements. We do this not just on highly connected systems but on Disconnected, Intermittent Connectivity, and Low-Bandwidth environments (DIL) and other contested environments to ensure:
- Mission assurance
- Security of the enterprise
- Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of data (CIA)
Our Cyber Defence Product Capability Includes:
CYBER LEADERSHIP—OUR ONGOING CONTRIBUTIONS TO INNOVATION & RESEARCH
Partnerships
As part of Canada’s cyber community, General Dynamics actively works with 60+ Small and Medium Sized Businesses (SMBs) and multiple higher education institutions to promote a robust and sovereign cyber ecosystem. Here are just some of those organizations:
