<p>GC Enterprise Architecture is created with the same idea as the industry standard of what an Enterprise Architecture suppose to be, only with a scope of the whole Government of Canada. The mandate of the GC Enterprise Architecture, as provided as part of GC EARB mandate, is to <i> refine </i> <b> current </b> architecture standard and to <i>define</i> <b> target </b> architecture standard.</p>

<p>Based on <b><i>TOGAF</b> (The Open Group Architecture Framework)</i>, the GC Enterprise Architecture is being developed using the same building blocks, ie. the <b>B-I-A-T-S+P</b> (<b>B</b>usiness - <b>I</b>nformation - <b>A</b>pplication - <b>T</b>echnology - <b>S</b>ecurity + <b>P</b>rivacy). The "<b>P</b>" (Privacy) is added here as an important component part of Security for Canadian public.</p>
