e-Governance Platform Security
Citizen service platforms hold personal data, process entitlements and are publicly reachable by design. Assurance focuses on the paths an ordinary user can reach and the data those paths expose.
The problem
What departments are dealing with
- Public reachability means continuous automated attack traffic from the moment of launch.
- Legacy modules remain in service alongside newly built components.
- Multiple departments and vendors share one application and database boundary.
- Citizen grievance and payment flows carry both privacy and financial consequence.
Outcomes
What the engagement produces
- Documented pre-launch or periodic assurance for the platform
- Authorisation defects identified before citizen data is exposed
- Hardening baseline applied consistently across environments
- Evidence suitable for departmental audit and review
