A Recommendation for a General Architecture for the pan-Canadian surveillance system proposed by UbiLab. This architecture is composed of the following main layers: (i) Device representing the different types of (IoT) devices that can be integrated into the system, (ii) Communication enabling the devices to communicate with the data sources on the Internet, (iii) Data representing and storing the information generated and collected by the devices, (iv) Applications representing the consumers/providers of information, and (v) Privacy and Security a cross-layer to contemplate the triad of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
