Government Solutions

Like business, government is faced with a rapidly changing electronic environment. Employees increasingly need access to their digital resources—data, files, applications and systems—from remote locations, yet government security needs are arguably higher than those of the private sector.

Route1 is equipped to help government meet those needs. Balancing the competing demands of flexibility and security, Route1’s solutions are cost-effective and simple, yet seamlessly integrate into existing IT infrastructures. We have developed electronic security and identity management solutions specifically designed to meet the high standards of the military, as well as identity validation that is compatible with government-issued identity cards, such as the US Department of Defense Common Access Card (CAC), the Personal Identification Verification (PIV) card and the First Responder Authentication Credential (FRAC) card.

How Route1 Can Address Government IT Security Needs

• Teleworking: As more and more personnel are required to work away from government locations, IT administrators are required to deploy solutions that allow employees to access their digital resources, anywhere, any time. Route1 can provide those solutions.
• Lost or Stolen Hardware: By allowing employees to work on files outside the protection of an agency firewall or store files on remote devices, governments leave themselves vulnerable to internet-based attacks or theft of mobile devices. Route1 can neutralize those threats, by protecting devices such as laptops or Guest computers from unauthorized access.
• Continuity of Operations: Governments are subject to a variety of threats—from natural disasters to terrorist attacks—yet are precisely the organizations required to address those crises if and when they strike. Secure and flexible access to digital resources is key for governments to meet their obligations and restore services as quickly as possible, and Route1 can help.
• Virtualization: Government depends on an increasing number of mobile personnel and contractors, and needs to facilitate virtual workplaces if they are to realize their full potential. Route1’s technology permits governments to develop a viable virtualization strategy that can reduce the amount of equipment and hardware deployed to the field, maximize productivity and ensure security of government digital resources.
