Government
Dealing with external and internal threats is not easy, let's do it together.
Guarding the public sector from cyber threats
Cybersecurity in government is of paramount importance. It doesn’t matter which department you work for, central agency or federal or local council or authority, each one is responsible for a large amount of sensitive PII data which makes it a prime target for cyber-attacks.
Government bodies are realizing the importance of digital transformation and are moving the critical infrastructure online. It is of prime importance to defend against cyber risks to ensure delivering essential services to its citizens and maintain the resiliency of national security.
Cyber threats in the Government sector
Government has always faced a unique challenge in terms of cybersecurity. They have been a target for a large number of threats from various unique groups. These platforms often underpin key functions of society such as Defence, immigration, taxation, health and social care or municipal service.

Solutions for improving cybersecurity
The impact of many threats or breaches is on information/services that various sectors hold. Yet, no government has been brought down by such attacks but it could happen theoretically. Wesecureapp understands all these challenges and comes up with catered solutions that tackle all your security needs.
Security Framework
We work with your internal teams to identify high-risk areas to create strategies to drive down the risk as opposed to remediating it as a one-off. These are some of the most cost-effective and reliable ways to reduce threats.
- Application VAPT
- Network VAPT
- Code Review
- Cloud security assessment
- Medical device testing to protect from Medjacking
Advanced Threat Simulation
Ensuring infrastructure security in place is required for any government organization. Also understanding the readiness and to have an effective recovery plan in place, we simulate threat actors and achieve objectives by non-destructive methods.
Compliance Management
Govt has come up with some regulations and standards to tackle security threats and avoid security breaches. Our team does the necessary assessment to ensure you are compliant with all of the security standards (NCSC, ACSC, FISMA etc).
Continuous Threat Detection
By performing periodic security assessments and penetration testing, the organisation can avoid any security threats, data breaches and also manage their reputation.
