Strategic and secure defence solutions​​ 

Digital transformation is increasingly forcing government agencies to secure their data. As one of the largest providers of managed security services to the Australian Department of Defence, Verizon can help you protect against threats to sensitive information.​​ 

Advancing agency digital transformation together.​​ 

As the number of entry points into your network has rapidly grown, reducing your attack surface is vital. Rely on Verizon’s more than 20 years of experience in providing government departments with managed security services and networking solutions to help you modernise, connect, and secure critical capabilities.​​ 

Solutions that keep pace with your transformation.​​ 

As Australia implements even more advanced, integrated, and secure networking and security solutions, you will need a partner to help safely connect your network to the Internet, while continuously analysing the potential threat landscape.​​  

The following are potential use cases in which we can help your agency:​​       

Secure remote login​​ 

High availability internet gateway services allow employees to securely log into their account remotely. Verizon offers network security, critical infrastructure security; managed security services and is one of only two commercial service providers accredited to gatekeeper certification to high assurance.​​ 

Powering ePassports​​ 

At e-passport-enabled airports, we can provide the key credentials that help to power the digital passport system. We’re a trusted provider of identity solutions for government and private sector organizations, and have also provided credentials to property, tax and healthcare entities.​​ 

Real-time cyber support​​ 

Our Advanced Security Operations Centre (SOC) based in Canberra, provides the Australian Government with threat monitoring, anomaly detection services and cybersecurity solutions, to help agencies to identify cybersecurity threats before they become a danger.​​ 

Network defence benefits​​ 

Put our critical defence infrastructure solutions, threat intel and forensic expertise to work and help ensure your business continuity, with cloud security solutions and network defence.​​ 

Continuously analyse the potential threat landscape​​ 

Get a comprehensive C6ISR (command; control; communications; computers; cyber defence and combat systems; and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) picture by combining command and control (operations) with ISR (intelligence) to increase the volume of data your agency is able to process to aid in your decision-making.​​ 

Counter threats​​ 

Increase the accuracy and comprehensiveness of real-time threat intelligence so you can respond to and target sophisticated threats from multiple domains – whether they emerge from space, land, air, sea or cyberspace.​​ 

Integrate and augment​​ 

Manage your on-premises gateway, or cloud cyber security requirements, with cybersecurity solutions and cloud security solutions. Apply intelligence-driven security analytics to secure your organisation's assets. Smarter data sharing can help you expand the numbers of systems your agency is able to manage, which will drive more data and analytics value for your organisation.​​ 

Keep data safer​​ 

Secure the fusion of cross-domain data and counter subsequent cyber vulnerabilities.​​
