Improve Cybersecurity and Incident Response with IIJA Funds
The bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) directs funds to state, local and tribal governments to help address cybersecurity risks and threats to information systems. Secure your infrastructure from attacks on government service delivery with VMware solutions that help you maximize federal funds from IIJA. Improve your defense and incident response with faster, more comprehensive detection to reduce the risk of a successful attack.
Cybersecurity for Government Agencies
Government agencies can take advantage of the IIJA funds to create a plan of action and protect against, detect, respond to and recover from cybersecurity threats. All while focusing on keeping essential citizen services up and running.
Operational Resiliency
Public sector organizations are turning to disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS), and more specifically VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery, to preserve data availability in the event of ransomware attacks and to recover their mission-critical workloads.
Modernize Legacy Apps for Improved Security
Migrate or modernize traditional apps for cloud and speed the development and delivery of cloud native services that enhance agency workflows and capabilities to increase agility and transform citizen service delivery.
Digital Equity
Leverage the cloud and private 5G technology to provide internet access to disadvantaged neighborhoods and more.
We know we’re catching things, we can see it, and we can monitor [what is happening] so [VMware Carbon Black Cloud Workload] gives us another layer of comfort and security that we never had before.
- Mike Chiavuzzi, Senior Manager of Network Operations, Polk County School District
