Service scope
Evidence preparation and practical planning.
AgileCT supports cyber insurance preparation, customer security questionnaires, privacy readiness, vendor reviews, and security fix planning. Compare the services and deliverables.
AgileCT does not provide insurance products, coverage decisions, legal advice, formal audit opinions, or a guarantee of regulatory compliance. Use the appropriate qualified professional for those decisions.
A readiness review documents the available evidence and unresolved gaps within the agreed scope. It cannot establish that every control is effective or that every risk has been identified.
Sources and dates
Make the basis of the guidance visible.
Our market, privacy, and renewal guides link relevant Statistics Canada, Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, and Canadian Centre for Cyber Security sources. Sources support specific statements; they do not endorse AgileCT or its services.
A guide's update date records an editorial change. Where the page also states that sources were checked, that means the cited documents were accessed and the relevant passages or data cells checked on that date. It is not a legal opinion, an independent audit, or proof of continuing accuracy.
Statistical survey years, source publication dates, and page update dates are kept distinct. Practical recommendations, such as preparation timelines, are identified separately from regulatory or insurer requirements.
