Government network security challenges include information assurance threats and vulnerabilities.
Government cyber security, information security, and network security are national priorities. Government agencies must identify and prioritize risk when designing and installing a network or system. Unfortunately, all government networks and systems are increasingly targeted by larger and more diverse cyber threats. Threats range from unsophisticated hackers to technically sophisticated intruders. Today's serious hackers are using state-of-the-art intrusion techniques that underscore the importance of government cyber security assurance. Many of these malicious attacks are designed to steal information, exposing ongoing information assurance needs. Other hacks are intended to disrupt, degrade, or destroy critical information systems. For example, energy management and industrial/process control systems are often connected to business networks to improve overall operations and decision making. Unfortunately, these control systems are often built using commercial off-the-shelf-products and open protocols that leave networks vulnerable to threats.
Need a government network or system engineered to meet Federal RMF security standards?
Resolute Partners engineers networks and designs control systems to meet Federal Risk Management Framework security standards.
Resolute Partners has been involved in government network services since 1997. Our team excels at federal government network security requirements and can support DISA, APL, FIPS-140-2, and NIST compliance. The networks we engineer offer high-side and low-side secure wireless connectivity by utilizing a fully redundant network to provide guest and corporate network access. Our proven streamlined technical and program processes help government agencies protect networks and systems. More than anything, we make certain information assurance and security and cybersecurity engineering are applied the right way. We ensure all network and system users can conduct mission-critical initiatives and meet demanding government standards for RMF certification.
Using the Federal Risk Management Framework (RMF) in both business and industrial networks, we help government agencies implement the required processes to secure, authorize, and manage IT systems. We design, install, and secure agency systems to receive an Authorization to Operate (ATO) and integrate ongoing risk management activities to maintain government network security. Our experience creating high security government networks for multiple federal entities speaks volumes. Coupled with continuous network management, our processes and networks ensure continued compliance and optimum safety.
