Cybersecurity Built for Canadian Compliance
PIPEDA breach readiness, OSFI B-13 alignment, SOC 2 Type II and 24/7 monitoring engineered for Canadian regulatory and customer expectations.
Canadian cybersecurity sits at the intersection of federal privacy law (PIPEDA), provincial privacy regimes (Quebec Law 25, Alberta PIPA, BC PIPA), federal financial services oversight (OSFI's B-13), and the customer-driven expectation of SOC 2 Type II for any Canadian SaaS selling into the U.S. enterprise market. Most Canadian companies struggle to map a coherent control program across all of these regimes.
Buraq's Canadian cybersecurity practice unifies these obligations into one integrated security program. PIPEDA breach response. OSFI B-13 alignment for federally regulated entities. SOC 2 Type II readiness for cross-border SaaS. CCCS Top 10 baseline. All under one program rather than five disconnected compliance projects.
What teams in Canada are up against
U.S. enterprise sales blocked by SOC 2 questionnaires Canadian companies often can't answer.
PIPEDA breach response runbooks that haven't been tested in years.
Quebec Law 25 obligations triggering unfamiliar privacy expectations on automated decision flows.
OSFI B-13 alignment gaps for federally regulated financial services.
Cyber insurance carriers asking Canadian-specific control questions you can't answer.

Outcomes for Canada teams
SOC 2 ready in one quarter
Most Canadian SaaS clients reach SOC 2 Type I readiness in 8–12 weeks and Type II readiness 6 months after observation period start.
PIPEDA breach response that works
Tested runbooks, predefined notification templates, and clear escalation paths so the next breach is a controlled response, not chaos.
OSFI B-13 alignment evidence
Technology risk documentation, third-party risk management, incident response and resilience testing aligned to OSFI expectations.
Customer questionnaires answered in days
Pre-built evidence packages, security pages, and trust portals so enterprise sales doesn't stall on procurement security review.
Built for Canadian customer and regulator expectations
Canadian customers expect specific things. Provincial privacy regulators expect specific things. OSFI expects specific things. The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security publishes guidance everyone is implicitly expected to follow. Mapping all of these into a coherent control program is the actual work most Canadian security programs are missing.
We build the evidence infrastructure once: control documentation, architecture diagrams, data flow maps, encryption inventories, vendor management records, incident response runbooks. Then we maintain it continuously so the next questionnaire takes hours instead of weeks.
Cross-border by design
Most Canadian SaaS sells into the United States. That means satisfying both Canadian privacy obligations and U.S. enterprise security expectations simultaneously. Our security programs are designed for this dual posture: PIPEDA-compliant for Canadian customers, SOC 2 Type II-ready for U.S. enterprise procurement, and explicitly documented for both jurisdictions.
Output is one security program that satisfies both sets of customers and both sets of regulators without duplicate effort.
