Integrity360 expands public sector cybersecurity practice

Integrity360 has announced the expansion of its public sector cybersecurity practice, to address the escalating threat of data breaches.

Irish government departments reported 6,885 data breaches over the past decade, highlighting that cyber risk to public services is both real and rising.

Public sector focus

By expanding its public sector focus, Integrity360 highlights that it is reaffirming its long-standing commitment to helping public sector organisations navigate growing cyber challenges.

With advanced capabilities and a growing team of experts, Integrity360 says that it is well positioned to help address threats, bridge technical skills gaps and strengthen cyber resilience across the public sector.

The company says that this enhanced focus is supported by its recent inclusion on the Framework for Firewalls and Associated Services and the Framework for Software Licensing and Associated Services from Ireland’s Office of Government Procurement (OGP) – providing a strategic tool to deliver effective cybersecurity services to public sector bodies.

Firewall solutions

Integrity360 explains that it can now deliver end-to-end firewall solutions and software licensing to a broader spectrum of public sector bodies, including:

• Government departments
• Local authorities
• Health and education organisations
• The defence and justice sectors

The OGP firewall framework enables these organisations to procure both physical and virtual firewall appliances, alongside vital support such as design, implementation and professional services from Integrity360’s team.

Strengthening public sector cyber defence

The expanded practice builds on Integrity360’s already strong foundation in the public sector. It aims to meet increasing demand and provide government and public services across Ireland with access to resilient, expert-led cyber defence in areas such as proactive threat detection, rapid response and compliance.

This will not only ensure enhanced visibility and improve the overall cybersecurity posture of public sector organisations, but will also protect the sensitive data of citizens who engage with these bodies.

“Foster trust and resilience”

Stephen Phillips, Head of Public Sector, Integrity360 commented: “Ireland’s public sector continues to face increasingly complex cyber threats.

“As digital threats grow in scale and complexity, public bodies facing mounting challenges – from data breaches, regulatory compliance demands, to the urgent need for robust incident response strategies,” Phillips continued.

“At Integrity360, we are deeply committed to providing tailored cybersecurity solutions that not only protect vital public services but also foster trust and resilience within our communities.

“Together, we can navigate these challenges and safeguard the integrity of our nation’s digital infrastructure,” he concluded.
