Challenges
Background
Central and State government bodies handle large amounts of critical data in the form of personal citizen data, project plans & reports, complaints, notifications, user records, public policies, purchases, etc. With most of this sensitive information being carried on email, it is vital that government bodies use a reliable, secure and private business class collaboration platform.
Risk of Cyberattacks on Government Agencies
Mounting cyberattacks on government organizations having on-premise email solutions with data scattered on various devices such as tapes and drives can put government agencies at a risk of personal citizen data being compromised.
Risks of On-Premise Solutions
On-premise email & data management solutions are not as cyber resilient as is required in modern times, due to which the government bodies risk devastating impacts on local service delivery, loss of public trust and punitive regulatory fines for failure to secure personal data of the public they serve.
Solution
Risk mitigation, resilience and responsiveness
Secure. Reliable. Scalable.
Efficient Email Communication
Email is an official form of communication and discussion. All external, intra and inter department email communication of government agencies may contain citizen data, confidential proposals, project plans, policies, and more.
The recent GRs by state governments and mandates by central governments instruct government agencies to leverage the flexibility, reliability, scalability and security of cloud services with data residency within the country.
Secure Enterprise Grade Instant Messaging and Chat for Recorded Synchronous Conversations
Scheduling to Improve Productivity & Increase Accountability
Non-Repudiable Official Notifications and Alerts
Since email is an official mode of communication, all notifications and alerts by government bodies can be sent on email instead of paper, to improve productivity and control costs, while maintaining a digital trail confirming receipt of the email by the recipients (non-repudiable).
