Certified under the United States / Canada Joint Certification Program

Our successful Cyber Security implementation has resulted in our application for Certification under the United States / Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) to be accepted and approved. The JCP is a collaborative effort between the United States Department of Defense (DoD) and the Department of National Defence (DND) of Canada. The program aims to streamline and standardize the process for certifying defense contractors, suppliers, and vendors who handle classified information and sensitive data for both governments.

​

Achieving certification under the JCP demonstrates our ability to safeguard sensitive data and comply with the stringent security standards mandated by both the US and Canadian governments. This certification is particularly important for companies involved in defense contracting or providing technology solutions to government agencies in both countries, as it signifies their eligibility to handle classified information and participate in defense-related projects.
