The image below depicts the relationship of the IT Security Tripartite with the current GC Security Governance Structure. The scope of the GC Security Structure is much broader than IT. The IT Security Tripartite consists of members from ADM Security and Identity Committee (ADM SIDC) and the Lead Security Agency Steering Committee (LSA SC). The IT Security Tripartite aligns through the LSA SC and ADM SIDC. Communication is required to both the Departmental Security Officer and IT Security Coordinator communities, as well as to the Chief Information Officer Council (CIOC), which is the GC CIO's advisory body.
