The population and organizations have various development opportunities thanks to the presence and growth of digital services and technologies. However, government, citizens and organizations are also increasingly facing (advanced) cyber threats, which can increase the risks and compromise the opportunities of digital services and technologies. The goal of all Governments is to establish a National Cybersecurity Strategy to safeguard the capabilities of services, goods, people and capital across borders.
Ntrustlabs helps governments and government agencies to mitigate and minimise risk associated with CyberCrime. Cybercrime poses a significant risk to organisations across the public sector. Whether it is disruption to critical infrastructure or the loss of confidential information, the consequences of a cyberattack are severe for government organisations and the people that rely on them. As a public sector professional within a government department, agency or council, it is vital to take proactive steps to protect against the potential damage cyberattacks could cause. In short, government cybersecurity presents a unique problem simply due to the huge volume of threats that agencies face on a daily basis— and the scale of the potential consequences if the threats aren’t foiled. Whatever the motive, it’s clear that governments are the highest-value targets for hackers today. Thus, it’s critical that agencies invest in strong cyber defences stronger, if anything, than those found in the private sector. At the state and local levels in particular, however, most agencies simply are devoting too little manpower and funding to the problem. Government agencies need to examine and understand all aspects of their operations in cyberspace, and the first step is simple: They need to lock the doors. But you can’t be sure all your doors are closed if you can’t find them. “Most agencies don’t even know what IT systems they have,” Similarly, agencies must review their data to determine levels of sensitivity.
