Public administration is increasingly becoming a target of cybercriminals. Offices and institutions store huge amounts of citizens’ data, which are extremely valuable. Attacks can paralyze the operation of an office and even lead to the leakage of confidential information. OPSWAT’ s solutions were created precisely to protect the public sector from such threats.

Frequently asked questions
Why is public administration an attractive target?
Offices have databases with citizens’ personal, financial and medical data. An attack on such a system is of great value to cybercriminals – they can sell the information, use it for fraud or blackmail the institution.
OPSWAT – multilayer protection technology
OPSWAT uses multi-engine technology, in which files are analyzed by multiple systems simultaneously. In addition, it uses CDR (Content Disarm and Reconstruction), which cleans files of potentially dangerous elements. This ensures that even a seemingly secure document is not a threat.
How does OPSWAT support offices in their daily work?
The administration receives hundreds of files every day – from attachments in e-mails to documents sent in by stakeholders. OPSWAT scans them in real time before they reach the official system. This minimizes the risk of infection and ensures business continuity.
Benefits for citizens and institutions
With OPSWAT, citizens can rest assured that their data is protected. Institutions, in turn, avoid system paralysis and financial losses resulting from attacks. This builds trust and increases the security level of the entire public sector.
Examples of applications in public administration
-
Protecting email systems from malicious attachments.
-
Secure receipt of documents from citizens.
-
Scanning devices connected to systems (e.g., flash drives).
-
Preventing the spread of ransomware on official networks.
Frequently asked questions
Is OPSWAT difficult to implement in the administration?
No, the solution is scalable and can be implemented in different types of institutions.
Is OPSWAT replacing the classic antivirus?
No, it’s a supplement – it works much more broadly, protecting in multiple layers.
Does OPSWAT only work on files?
No, technology also includes devices and network traffic.
Summary
OPSWAT is an effective tool for public administration that protects against cyber attacks and ensures the security of citizens’ data. With multi-layered protection and file cleanup, offices can operate stably and securely, and citizens are guaranteed that their information is properly protected.
