Proactive Security Solution for Midwest Local Government
With the help of the CC/B1 Platform™, a large Midwest County government up-leveled its cyber defense and protected itself against more than 730,000 significant priority level-one security threats.
When a Local or County government experiences a cyber-attack, it’s not just the entity’s network security that’s at risk — it’s also the lives of the residents who depend on it to supply safe drinking water, access to oil and gas, and critical emergency services. Government organizations have become prime targets for cyber-attacks due to their dependence on critical IT systems, lean budgets and minimal staff, and the treasure trove of valuable information stored in their networks. Knowing these factor, including a rootkit virus that had cost their organization thousands of dollars in cleanup, our Midwest County client embarked on a 45-day test of our CC/B1 Platform™. The CC/B1 went on to detect and stop over 730,000 unique attacks, helping their small staff sleep much better at night.
