medalCIRA is proud to partner with Canada’s National Research and Education Network (NREN) to deliver the first initiative funded through the CANARIE Cybersecurity Initiatives Program.

Built by the community, for the community, this program coordinates and aligns national initiatives to strengthen the research and education sector’s cybersecurity capacity.

If your organization is participating in the Cybersecurity Initiatives Program and has executed the Organization Cybersecurity Collaboration Agreement (OCCA) with CANARIE, the CIRA team will help you to onboard with the DNS Firewall and provide 24/7 support.

If you are unsure about the status of your organization’s participation in this program, please contact the NREN Partner organization in your province or territory.
