🎃 Some scares last longer than Halloween.

On October 21, CBC News revealed that more than 1.5 million Canadian Crime Stoppers tips spanning 25 years had been exposed in a data breach. The data was stolen in March, but CBC’s investigation brought the extent of the Canadian exposure to light this month.

More than 850,000 tips contained personal information—including details about tipsters, people named in allegations, staff, and police. Exposed information included addresses, phone numbers, emails, and some banking details.

CBC’s follow-up reported 11 Crime Stoppers programs pausing tip intake and 24 police units suspending partnerships.

As Cybersecurity Awareness Month wraps up, consider:
🔐 What sensitive information are you collecting—and how long are you keeping it?
🤝 How are your technology partners protecting that information?
🚨 Is your team prepared to respond to a breach?

At Sirkit, Security First means keeping people at the centre of cybersecurity, every month of the year.

Don’t wait for a scare to start the conversation. Let’s talk about protecting your business.

At Sirkit, we believe great people make all the difference. That’s why we’re excited to recognize Jordan as our Employee of the Month! 🏆

Jordan has embraced the challenge of questioning the status quo, seeking ways to innovate, and always asking, “Can we do this better?” When he spotted inefficiencies, he took ownership and made improvements without waiting to be asked.

From helping drive the completion of our Bench 2.0 workspace to finding ways to reduce deployment times, Jordan’s initiative is making a meaningful difference for the team.

Jordan brings our core value of Kaizen to life by putting continuous improvement into practice. We’re grateful for their fresh thinking and commitment to making things better for everyone. Jordan, thank you for everything you do.

Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition! 👏

SPOILED MILK & WARM B**R?! 🍺🥛

Imagine opening your fridge to find spoiled milk and warm b**r. All because someone decided to hack the systems keeping everything cold.

On October 9th, 2026, Hackers forced the temperatures of fridges and freezers to 50 °C overnight, causing fires and spoiling food at several hundred French stores.

Marta Rybczyńska, a cybersecurity specialist and researcher, said she had found previous security warnings about old supermarket freezers running out-of-date software and newer models not having firmware updated.

“Some of these freezers hadn’t been supported by the manufacturers for several years and there were notices saying they should be replaced. Other freezers were newer but the software hadn’t been updated,” Rybczyńska said.

“The hackers found these weaknesses and used them.”

She added: “Many of the freezers appear to have been running with a default password. The hackers were able to modify or turn off the alerts, so the shops only realized when the first person arrived in the morning and saw the damage that had been done.”

Cyberattacks don't just affect computers. They can disrupt the everyday things we take for granted.

Stay secure. Keep your b**r cold.

We're incredibly proud to announce the promotion of Colin Stephens to Chief People Officer (CPO) at Sirkit! 👏

At Sirkit, we believe great people make all the difference. That's why we're excited to recognize Kierin Chesworth as our August Employee of the Month! 🏆

Early on, Kierin was asked to take on the 7–4 shift and embraced the change without hesitation. When the team needed additional support, Kierin volunteered to step in and help keep things moving. Despite being new to the team, Kierin didn’t hesitate to take on additional responsibility.

Kierin’s adaptability, initiative, and willingness to help have made a meaningful impact in a very short time. We’re grateful for everything you bring to the team.

🤖 When AI goes rogue: Can artificial intelligence become a hacker?

To kick off Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we’re looking back at some of Canada's most memorable cybersecurity incidents.

In October 2026, researchers revealed that an AI agent had attempted to hack the Library and Archives Canada website.

According to a report from U.S.-based research group Transluce, AI agents made 899 search requests targeting historical Canadian records in May and June 2026. Of those requests, 13 contained suspicious instructions designed to probe the website for security vulnerabilities.

Fortunately, the attempts were unsuccessful, and the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security reported no indication that government systems had been compromised.

🤖 The takeaway: Artificial intelligence is changing the cybersecurity landscape. AI can be an incredible tool for businesses, but as AI becomes more autonomous, it can also introduce new risks.

🍂 Happy Thanksgiving from Sirkit! 🦃

The Sirkit crew is logging off, powering down, and making room for turkey, stuffing, and probably one too many slices of pie. 🥧

Our office will be closed Monday, October 12th for Thanksgiving, and we’ll be back at it on Tuesday!

We’re incredibly thankful for our amazing clients, partners, and team who make Sirkit what it is.

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving! 🍂

Hockey season is back. 🏒

So naturally, we had to break out the jerseys at Sirkit.

Different teams. Different colours. A few questionable allegiances. 😏 But one thing we can all agree on: showing up for your team matters.

That’s a big part of what Stronger Together means to us.

You don’t have to wear the same jersey to have each other’s backs. You show up. You support your people. You celebrate the wins together, battle through the tough ones, and protect the team when it matters.

That’s how we try to show up for each other at Sirkit, and it’s how we show up for our clients and partners every day.

Now, once the puck drops, all bets are off. 😂

To our Flames friends and partners: we’ll always have your backs when it comes to your technology.

But on the ice? We’re coming for you. 😉

Here’s to another season of rivalries, chirps, great hockey, and hopefully the CUP back in Edmonton!

Stronger Together. Even when we’re cheering for different teams.

Let’s go, Oilers! 🧡💙
