      As a proud sponsor of the Security Education Conference Toronto (SecTor), New Signature is pleased to announce Canada Director General for National Cyber Security, Colleen Merchant, as this year’s opening keynote speaker.

      Colleen Merchant has a rich background in science, technology and security. She began her career in 1986 at the Johnson Space Centre, where her time was spent in the Mission Control Centre as a flight controller specializing in multi-body trajectory analysis and rendezvous flight dynamics. In 1993, she moved to the Canadian Space Agency where she was responsible for the development and implementation of their manned space flight control centre and integration of civilian and military space programs at DND. Ms. Merchant moved to the Communications Security Establishment of Canada (CSEC) in 2004, and then joined the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat’s (TBS’s) Chief Information Officer Branch in April 2011 as the Executive Director of Government Security. Ms. Merchant returned to the Canadian Space Agency in September 2013 where she is the Director of Programs and Integrated Planning, and is now the Director General of National Cyber Security at Public Safety Canada.

      In addition to Merchant, SecTor will host sessions from experts in areas of technolog, management, and fundamentals of security. We believe this line-up will create one of the most engaging, educational and thought-provoking IT security sessions Toronto has ever seen.
