Government
“Cyber threats to government aren’t just about data - they’re about trust, continuity, and national security.”
Understanding Cybersecurity in Government:
Government entities, from national ministries to local councils, are among the most targeted sectors for cyberattacks. Nation-state actors, ransomware groups, and hacktivists know that disrupting public systems can undermine trust, halt essential services, and even threaten national security. The risks extend across domains - utilities, transportation, healthcare, education, law enforcement, and emergency response - all of which depend on secure, resilient operations. Globally, governments also face complex regulatory environments, from NIST and FedRAMP in the United States to ISO 27001, GDPR, and the Essential Eight in Europe and Australia.
How We Support Government Stakeholders:
We help governments of all sizes strengthen their defenses and simplify compliance without adding unnecessary complexity. For large agencies, we provide vCISO leadership and governance frameworks that align with international standards and enable cross-border collaboration. For municipalities and smaller departments, we offer affordable assessments, risk-based reporting, and guidance on funding and grant compliance. Our work spans everything from vulnerability assessments of utilities and public safety systems to incident response planning and strategic roadmaps that ensure continuity of critical operations.
