Public Sector
Enhanced data security for more effective governance.
Governments, government departments, and public projects throw up some unique challenges. Managing massive volumes of private citizen data, securing field operations for large numbers of users, and complying with many of the government’s own stringent compliance requirements are some of the most important obstacles to overcome. Each of these finds a solution in identity and access management.
Reinforced public trust with secure citizen data
When it comes to the data of the citizens of a district, state, or even a country, the scale of public sector projects is massive, and the impact of a data breach is equally severe. In fact, at a governmental level, data breaches in critical projects or departments can even result in national security issues and a loss of public trust in the system.
Akku helps ensure data security at a nation-wide or global scale in multiple ways.

Streamlined inter-agency collaboration
Many public sector projects require multiple departments or government agencies to work together. The efficiency of such projects is invariably impacted by the inability of the departments to streamline their process of collaboration with shared data and applications.
Akku brings the required applications from the two (or multiple) agencies onto a common platform to act as the single identity provider. This makes it possible to implement a single sign-on across these applications, and make the process of collaboration far smoother. Akku’s user directory takes this further by allowing you to easily manage users and roles. The result is efficient information sharing along with enhanced compliance and governance.

Enhanced regulatory compliance
When it comes to complying with data privacy regulations, governmental agencies are expected to lead by example. An important reason for this is the criticality of data that they manage, which can impact public welfare and even national security in case of a breach.
Akku contributes to meeting compliance requirements in several ways.
Implementing role-based access controls (RBAC) to segregate duties and required access, and provide each user or role only the minimum access they need
Meeting regulatory requirements for data protection including granular access management and multi-factor authentication
Capturing and maintaining comprehensive audit logs on all user activity for use during compliance audits
