Governments are high-value targets for attackers seeking sensitive data. While disruptive attacks can cause significant damage to the private sector, successful cyber attacks on governments can be catastrophic. Citizens place a high level of trust with governments, and a breach of sensitive data can imperil national security, destabilize economic stability, and erode citizens’ trust.
The issue of cyber security also continues to be a fraught geopolitical issue, with state-sponsored actors equipping themselves for aggressive cyber warfare.
