2009-2010 Annual Report tabled
The results of three classified reports completed this past year are summarized in the 2009-2010 Annual Report, which was tabled in the House of Commons on July 21, 2010, by the Honourable Peter Gordon MacKay, Minister of National Defence. One was a comprehensive study relating to CSEC information technology security activities and two were reviews relating to foreign intelligence activities. The two reviews found that CSEC complied with the law and ministerial requirements and protected the privacy of Canadians. CSEC accepted the recommendations made in the reviews and is taking action to address them. CSEC is also addressing findings in order to improve its policies or practices.
