Major Events Coordinated Security Solutions

Public Security Science and Technology Symposium

“bridging the gap between S&T producers and users…”

16 June 2009

2Project Overview and Status

MECSS Objectives

• Primary:

– Assist the functional authorities in reducing the security risk associated with V2010 through the coordinated application of Science and Technology.

• Secondary:

– Contribute to the establishment of an enduring Major Event security architecture that can be applied to future Major Events in Canada.

Managed as a project under the Public Security Technical Program within Centre for Security Science

Reusable Major Events Security Framework

• Reusable Framework is now identified as DRDC investment priority;

• Champion: RCMP (with MECSS multi-agency governance for development)

• Framework will borrow heavily from existing portfolios and best practices.

• Key elements include:

– Capability planning/development;

– Integrated ‘whole of gov’t’ planning process; and

– Institutionalization of S&T structure.

Summary: Major Events Security Framework

• Overarching guide to Major Events Security Management

• Provides standardized planning process

– Contextualized with major event security scenarios

• Leveraging the scenarios of CSS

• Ensures control of strategic & operational planning

• Enables strategic goals to be translated to operational level security objectives and mapping to capability requirements

• Enables leadership to guide development of the plan, and to synchronize & integrate joint operational security functions

• Maximizes effective and efficient use of resources

G8 Proposal

• The G8 offers the opportunity to validate certain MECSS outcomes;

• As identified by the RCMP and the ISU, there is a need to facilitate the transfer of new S&T generated knowledge, from the V2010 to the G8 domain;

• It is not within the scope of MECSS to generate new work in support of the G8.

MECSS will support the establishment of a Scientific Advisor within the G8 Integrated Security Unit, to:

– Manage the validation of new knowledge generated through MECSS activity in support of V2010 security; and

– Facilitate the transfer of this new knowledge into the G8 planning process, and further into the longer term reusable Major Events framework.
