Cybersecurity for Government
Public sector agencies need security postures that satisfy national frameworks and stand up to public accountability, on constrained procurement timelines.
Key challenges
- Public sector agencies are high-value targets for nation-state and ransomware actors alike, while operating under public accountability and disclosure requirements private companies don't face.
- Procurement and budget cycles are slow, but threats don't wait for the next fiscal year to exploit an unpatched system.
- Legacy systems built for stability over decades are hard to modernize without disrupting critical public services.
