In 2011, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made an ambitious promise to turn a country with less than a quarter of Canada’s population and GDP into a top-five global cybersecurity power within five years.
“It’s a massive machine,” said Tyson Johnson, the chief operating officer for CyberNB, a government of New Brunswick agency working to help the cybersecurity sector grow in Canada. “That level of integration should be imitated here in Canada.
One of the program’s hallmarks has been the government’s emphasis on developing human capital and not just companies themselves. When their terms are over, they can continue their education in university; Israel was the first country in the world where students could obtain a PhD in cybersecurity as an independent discipline. Otherwise there are two choices, according to Asher Abish, the regional director for marketing and sales of ELTA Systems Ltd., a subsidiary of the government-owned Israel Aerospace Industries, which provides cybersecurity defence services.
Israel spawned 60 new cybersecurity companies in 2018 alone. With assistance from the government, these companies have been allowed to continue to grow to a point where they’re attracting the interest of international venture capital funds. Last year, Israel’s cyber companies raised more than US$1.03 billion across all stages of funding. That accounts for 20 per cent of the total venture capital funds invested in cyber companies worldwide, second only to the U.S.
