Canada’s Defence Industry

Attention Company Security Officers (CSO)

Supporting Canada’s Defence Industrial Base Through Trusted Personnel Verification Services

CSI Background Screening is a Canadian-owned small business that helps defence contractors streamline the employee verification activities required as part of the Government of Canada’s personnel security screening process. We support Corporate Security Officers (CSOs) and Alternate Corporate Security Officers (ACSOs) by conducting and documenting the preliminary background verifications required before Reliability Status or Security Clearance applications are submitted.

Drawing on extensive experience in background screening and verification services, CSI helps organizations confirm employee identity, address history, educational credentials, employment history, and personal references—reducing administrative burden while supporting compliance with federal security requirements. As an RCMP-Accredited Fingerprinting Company, CSI also provides fingerprinting services to assist organizations in meeting Contract Security Program (CSP) and Security Clearance Requirements associated with defence industry screening.
