Government IT Solutions

Protecting citizen data requires superior government IT solutions

As cyberattacks on all levels of government continue to rise, superior government IT solutions are required to ensure government cyber security and protect the personal data and identifiable information of citizens of local governments.

One of the biggest challenges is protecting email systems, which are often the primary target for attackers. From malware and spear-phishing attacks to ransomware and impersonation attacks, governments are continually fending off attempts by cyber criminals to compromise systems or steal sensitive data that could adversely impact a government's citizens. Yet governments at all levels are facing budget constraints that make it difficult to put effective solutions in place.

On top of this dilemma, government IT solutions for email are also required to ensure compliance with a wide range of regulatory frameworks. And government transformation strategy at all levels of government is placing pressure on officials to find more efficient and affordable government IT solutions that can make government services and communications more available and efficient, even when outages, disasters or attacks occur.

Fortunately, local governments can count on Mimecast to provide government IT solutions for protecting email from attack, enabling email continuity during outages and simplifying email archiving and retention to ensure compliance and reduce administrative burden.
