02Mandate

Research on digital continuity.

Field

Scope

Cyber and digital resilience, and the critical infrastructure that depends on it.

Community

Who takes part

Security researchers, security operations practitioners, infrastructure defenders and digital-risk analysts.

Outputs

What it is designed to publish

Digital resilience research notes, critical service scenarios and security literacy material.

03Publisher

Who is responsible.

GCRI publishes the platform and answers for its content. GCRI Canada is the lead contracting organisation.

  • Status: established. Cybersecurity and Digital Resilience is a platform of The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI). Information and enquiries are open today.
  • Why a dedicated platform: the security community has a methodology distinct from AI, governance and compute infrastructure, built on threat modelling, incident handling and recovery engineering.
  • Sources and methods will be published at sources and methods and uncertainty.
04Limits

What the platform does not do.

GCRI is a research, development and policy institution. It is not a regulator, and it does not certify, license or approve; its findings carry their methods and uncertainty.

  • It does not provide incident response, threat intelligence services, penetration testing or security audits.
  • It does not publish exploit code or details that would enable an attack.
  • It does not collect personal data from security incidents beyond what published sources contain.
  • It does not name or shame organisations that have suffered incidents; cases are used for learning, at the level of detail their public reports allow.
  • Taking part, hosting or sponsorship gives no authority over findings.

The Consortium is not an emergency or incident response service. If you are dealing with an active incident, contact your national computer emergency response team or your own security provider.

05Operating state

What exists today.

The platform publishes information and receives enquiries. Governance questions on digital technology are convened at AI and Digital Governance at The Global Risks Forum (GRF); the financial sector's shared understanding of cyber risk is built at Financial Cyber and Operational Resilience at The Global Risks Alliance (GRA). See the field overview.

06Questions

Questions and answers.

Is the platform a separate organisation?
No. It is a specialist platform of GCRI with no separate legal identity.
Will it share threat information?
Research outputs are public and general. The platform is not designed as a threat-sharing community; sector and national arrangements serve that purpose.
How do I contact the team?
Write to Contact or see contact the specialist team. The acknowledgement gives a reference and names the next step.
