PUBLIC SECTOR CLOUD SERVICES Cloud technology is accelerating digital transformation in the public sector. The public sector has traditionally lagged behind the private sector on the path to digital transformation, partly due to budgetary concerns, red tape, and limited resources. But public sector cloud solutions fuel acceleration on the path to digitalization while simplifying data privacy, system security, business continuity, and compliance. Speak With a Public Sector Cloud Expert The Right Cloud Solution Can Help You Better Serve Citizens While Freeing Up Limited Public-Sector Resources Cloud solutions are helping the public sector accelerate digital transformation efforts, so organizations can better serve citizens, free up limited resources, and reduce backlogs, ultimately making them more efficient — which is good for employees, suppliers, partners, and citizens alike. The cloud holds huge potential in this space — such as smart, connected cities, healthier data management with more robust and flexible integrations, and better data protection and redundancy — helping simplify cloud security, privacy, and compliance. But federal, provincial, and local governments — as well as public-sector agencies — often struggle to balance legacy operations and cost-cutting measures against growing populations, rising cybersecurity threats, and public demand for better services. They handle an ever-increasing volume of sensitive data, often across siloed departments and agencies, and they’re a frequent target of ransomware and cyberattacks. End-to-End Support for Public Services Ensuring security and privacy for both citizens and government institutions is paramount. At the same time, a hybrid-cloud approach is often necessary to meet the challenges of accessing and storing data beyond Canadian borders (where part of the data needs to be stored on-premise due to governance and security regulations).
