The proposed research will use camera trap footage collected since 2009 to answer questions relating to grizzly bear conservation and status within British Columbia. Observed numbers of female bears with cubs will be analyzed in relation to Pacific salmon returns to a specific river on the coast of BC, to determine if there is a […]

IndigenousTech.ai Corporation (IndigenousTech.ai) since inception has been focusing on improving the quality of life for Indigenous peoples living on reserve. Through financial literacy training, housing reviews, credit projects, implementations of new technologies for remote communities, and mentorship programs, we have been able to establish an excellent network and trust with over forty (40+) Indigenous communities […]

The Guelph Minor Hockey Association (GMHA) is a not-for-profit community sport organization (CSO) that has serviced the City of Guelph with youth hockey programming since 1948. Currently, 1,500 youth are enrolled in GMHA programming. Although hockey is known as Canada’s sport, the landscape has been changing. Many of the country’s largest minor hockey associations have […]

The circular economy is an important component of sustainability in this present economy. This project requires the intern to develop a commercialization plan for an innovative technology-driven process of extracting proteins and nutrients from organic waste generated by food and beverage manufacturers. The partner organization possesses intellectual know-how and process expertise in converting organic waste […]

Advanced persistent threat (APT) groups, as well as those sponsored by a nation-state, often aim to gain undetected access to a network and then remain silently persistent, establish a backdoor, and steal data, as opposed to causing damage. APT groups use different tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) at various stages of cyberattacks. The continuous and […]

This landmark project was built by Dr. Jessica Dolan with leadership at the Indigenous organization Plenty Canada, and the Conservation Through Reconciliation Partnership team at University of Guelph. Working closely in collaboration with Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabeg educators and culture-bearers, the team is combining plant biology surveys in the Greenbelt region of Southern Ontario, with historical […]

Understanding the current panorama of threat actor groups worldwide is critical to building efficient cybersecurity programs. Information about threat actor groups’ motivations, tools, tactics and techniques they use to attack, and the type of targets they have in their sights provide valuable information to cybersecurity teams. To achieve this goal is essential to generate intelligence […]

Malicious adversaries are increasingly aiming to bypass security controls. There is a race to “owning” vulnerable machines and it is advantageous to malicious adversaries if the existing vulnerabilities are not patched. The research will be performed on a vulnerability assessment and management platform, specifically designed to assist organizations in identifying and mitigating cyber risks. It […]

This research project aims to develop cost-effective solutions to aid organizations in defending against cyber-attacks. With limited resources, security operations centers are struggling to defend against the vast volume of cyber-attacks. The project proposes reducing the work effort and amount of labor needed to perform tasks such as manual inspection and incident responses. By enhancing […]

Insider threat involves individuals who have access to company resources and causes harm to the institution. These insiders can be employees, consultants, contractors, and third-party companies. Different types of insiders include people who intentionally harm the company, those to masquerade as a trusted entity, and those who unintentionally cause harm. Insider threats can lead to […]

A red team is a group of cybersecurity experts who are tasked with simulating real-world attacks on an organization’s systems and networks. They do this by using a variety of tools and techniques to identify vulnerabilities and weaknesses in an organization’s defenses. This project implements command-and-control infrastructure, which is critical for the red team or […]

As cyber adversaries are becoming more creative, analysts are required to figure out more innovative ways to detect them to be able to respond before it’s too late. To detect any underlying threat inside a system, data logs are collected showing events and activities occurring inside the system. Adversaries nowadays are capable of evading detection […]
