Government

Government entities require efficient ways to cut costs, increase security and provide superior customer service. Technology can help government units initiate new product and service developments, such as e-government services. By supplying government applications and services online, e-government helps citizens comply with regulations while minimizing employing workload and creating more efficient processes.

For information-sharing between departments and government units, government offices use Wide Area Network (WAN) technology. Using portals for centralized access to information, government offices need constant access to data files. Government offices and units have strict security guidelines and regulations. Government units have national security and data protection responsibilities, which technology can help protect personal and classified information. Offices must comply with regulations such as the Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002 (FISMA), which requires computer and network security through annual audits.

Data availability is essential to government organizations at all times, but is especially important during emergency management for government and for mobile government instances. In a natural or man-made disaster, governments need to continue to function and provide services by implementing a disaster recovery plan.

Secure Transactions
Government organizations require secure applications, web browsers, and VPNs to ensure data security. Psoft provides government organizations with IPsec, SSL and firewalls provide secure data and communications.

Disaster Recovery/ Business Continuity
Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD-12) requires government units have disaster recovery plans in place. IPsoft provides data backup, storage and recovery and prevention tools for a complete disaster recovery solution.

Service Oriented Architecture
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) consolidates organization processes, combining service management into one architecture. SOA lowers IT costs and speed acceleration and security for web applications and datacenter management.

With SOA’s multi-application and server monitoring and management, organizations enhance their services and business functions, such as: customer service, order service and inventory service. Businesses better utilize their applications and resources by deploying SOA components: application server, middleware, repository and SOA management tools.

SOA Benefits
Eases monitoring and tracking of requirements for compliance regulations. Provides application availability and identifying connectivity and interoperability problems. Saves time and effort by re-using the same functionality in multiple applications.

Network and Application Availability
Government units need continuous network and application availability. IPsoft provides peak network and availability with 24 x 7 support service.
