Cryptographic Protection for the Public Sector

Building a secure cryptographic framework to ward off cyber threats, using the cryptographic triad:

Public Key Infrastructure (PKI):

Verify the identity of individuals and machines on your network using digital certificates and protect your highly sensitive data from being compromised.

Certificate Lifecycle Management / Automation (CLM/CLA):

Prevent outages and stay compliant. We offer CLM/CLA solutions aligned with all leading regulatory frameworks to ensure your digital certificate lifecycle is seamlessly managed and automated.

Key Management, including Hardware Security Modules (HSMs):

The foundation of trust and the enabler of PKI by providing + guarding your cryptographic keys.

Identity and Access Management (IAM) for the Public Sector

IAM
A robust Identity and Access Management framework prevents unauthorized access to highly sensitive financial, health and personal information. We work with public sector entities, including government agencies to build robust compliant IAM frameworks including:

Multi Factor Authentication (MFA)

Single Sign On (SSO):

secure convenience for busy telecom employees

Access Control:

Role-based access control and Attribute-based access control for compliance

Privileged Access Management (PAM):

to provide oversight over ‘privileged’ accounts such as administrator accounts to prevent breaches

Safeguarding Physical Access:

including smartcards

Governments and public

Governments and public sector entities are a major target of cyberattacks

275 days

Challenging realities of the Public Sector

Public sector organizations, including government departments and agencies house large amounts of highly sensitive PII, financial data and classified / confidential materials that are an ideal target for cybercriminals
Vast Quantities of Data

Vast Quantities of Data

Public sector organizations interact with vast quantities of data that must be protected. Additionally, public sector entities must adhere to strict standards and regulations about the use and storage of data. Ransomware attacks, data breaches, and evolving cyber risks threaten the public, employees, and stakeholders.
Budgetary restrictions

Budgetary Restrictions

It can be challenging to procure a robust cybersecurity solutions within stringent public sector budgets. Fortunately, Accutive Security offers a broad range of scalable solutions to fit your budget.
Legacy Systems Vulnerabilities

Navigating Regulatory Compliance

Antiquated IT infrastructure can leave you susceptible to cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
High Stakes

High Stakes Data

Some of the largest and most expensive data breaches have targeted public sector organizations. Public sector organizations store large volumes of personally identifiable information and other highly sensitive data that must be safeguarded at all costs.
