Government agencies and public institutions hold critical infrastructure, sensitive citizen data, and national records making them frequent targets for cybercriminals. Whether the attack seeks to steal personal data, disrupt services, or conduct espionage, the consequences often impact public trust, national security, and continuity of essential services. With increasing geopolitical tensions and a rise in sophisticated ransomware, phishing, and supply-chain attacks, public-sector organizations must strengthen their defenses to safeguard data, services, and civic operations.
