Canada Security Collective is a professional networking and education group created for today’s security professionals — the thinkers, the fixers, and the future-builders.
We’re here to connect the industry’s most passionate minds, provide meaningful opportunities for collaboration and learning, and raise the bar on what community in security looks like. From curated networking events to forward-thinking panels and hands-on sessions, we’re building something that reflects you — inclusive, innovative, and action-oriented.
This is where change happens. This is where people who care show up.
Anyone in the security industry who wants to grow, connect, and make a real impact.
Whether you’re a seasoned leader, a rising professional, an integrator, consultant, distributor, or end user — Canada Security Collective is for people who are curious, collaborative, and ready to push the industry forward. We welcome all backgrounds, all experience levels, and all voices.
If you care about building a stronger, smarter, more inclusive security community — you belong here.
We intentionally chose a for-profit model so we could deliver more value with less red tape. This structure allows us to consistently reinvest in better speakers, venues, and experiences — all while staying agile and impact-driven.
Revenue is reinvested into the business to scale programming, improve quality, and develop tools that benefit our members and the industry as a whole. We're here to make an impact, not just make money.
Not at all. Our mission is built on inclusivity, accessibility, and collaboration across all corners of the industry.
In fact, our for-profit structure gives us more freedom — not less. It allows us to lead with integrity, take action swiftly, and hold both individuals and organizations accountable for their words and actions.
We're not governed by a board of decision-makers with conflicting interests. We're governed by our values and our community — which means we can stand behind what’s right, consistently and transparently.
Canada Security Collective (CSC) is not just another networking group. We’re a collaborative, independent initiative designed to bring together voices from across the security, technology, and IT industries—including those often overlooked by traditional associations.
While we respect and support the efforts of existing industry organizations, our mission is to fill gaps—not duplicate or compete. We focus on practical education, cross-sector connection, and inclusive community building. Where interests align, we welcome collaboration.
As a member of Canada Security Collective, you gain access to a full calendar of meaningful engagement: regular programming sessions, conferences, and training opportunities that keep you informed and inspired. You’ll be part of curated conversations with industry leaders and disruptors, and have access to our member-only online forum where real talk happens — across businesses, across roles, and across the country. Whether you’re looking to shape industry standards, expand your network, or just connect with people who get it, this is your place to grow — professionally and personally.
No Membership Required — Just Show Up!
All are welcome at our public events. You don’t need to be a member to participate — we believe in accessibility, community, and showing up for each other.
But Membership is Where the Magic Happens.. Think of membership as your backstage pass to everything that makes Canada Security Collective special. It’s where conversations go deeper, opportunities multiply, and your impact grows.
No invitation needed. If you’re passionate about making the industry better, you’re already one of us.
Canada Security Collective is an independent networking and education initiative. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or competing with any existing security, technology, or IT industry association.
