Cybersecurity for Defence and Government

Strengthening the defence and government organisations across the globe.

 Advancing Cybersecurity Threats in Government Networks

With an ever-growing and developing threat landscape, the criticality of securing networks and critical infrastructure within government and defence-based organisations are now more important and complex than ever before. The scale and importance of data, both government and defence organisations hold and share, make them an attractive target for cyber attackers. 

Cybersecurity Recommendations for Government Organisations

1. Acknowledge The Threat

The probability of a breach is highly likely. However, if you are prepared, it will lessen the impact to the organisation. The security mantra for any organisation should be ‘when’ and not ‘if’ we will be breached. 

2. Consider the Entire Organisation’s Security

Do not limit security to just the IT department, instead share it across your people, processes, and technologies as these are all likely targets for hackers. Also, ensure that senior executives understand and are part of the process. 

3. Create a Cybersecurity Strategy and Plan

Share your documents and deploy the actions. Plus, do not forget the added merit of a disaster recovery plan to ensure you cover every eventually. 

4. Penetration Test Your Environment

Penetration testing allows you to evaluate your organisation’s security by testing it using ethical hackers like Nettitude. 

5. Remediate Findings

After a test, ensure you act quickly to remediate any findings that highlight threats or weaknesses to your organisation.

6. Continue the Process

 Securing and protecting an organisation is a continual process. Arrange regular security reviews and never be complacent.
