Securing Critical Infrastructure for a State Government Department
A state government department responsible for critical public services and citizen data management sought to improve its cyber resilience against growing threats from nation-state actors and ransomware groups.
StrikeCyber executed a full-spectrum cybersecurity evaluation.
The government department bolstered its cyber defenses, ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of citizen services.
The Challenge
As a high-value target for cybercriminals, the company faced increased risks of fraud, API exploitation, and data breaches. The security team required a proactive cybersecurity strategy to assess vulnerabilities, detect potential attack vectors, and fortify their payment infrastructure against real-world threats.
The Challenge
The department managed highly sensitive data and was increasingly targeted by sophisticated cyberattacks, including phishing, insider threats, and supply chain vulnerabilities. They required a comprehensive security assessment to safeguard digital assets and ensure compliance with government security frameworks.

- Penetration testing of internal and external networks, including VPN and remote access security.
- Supply chain security assessment to identify vendor-related risks.
- Cloud security audit to ensure secure implementation of government cloud services.
The Outcome
- Strengthened defenses against nation-state cyber threats.
- Enhanced government compliance with ASD Essential Eight and PSPF security standards.
