Case Study: Government agency reduces risk and secures data with BlackBerry Cybersecurity Consulting

Government organisation - Customer Case Study

A government agency that had recently launched a public data portal and outsourced its IT services engaged BlackBerry Cybersecurity Consulting to evaluate and strengthen its security posture. Constrained budgets, strict data‑residency rules, the prospect of GDPR penalties, commercial‑grade infrastructure, and fractured ownership of IT had increased the agency’s threat surface and left it uncertain about compliance.

BlackBerry ran social‑engineering and physical security tests, performed in‑depth technical assessments of systems and processes, and worked with the agency to implement mitigations and staff training. The result was a demonstrable reduction in risk, improved regulatory compliance and GDPR readiness, and stronger integrity of information through patched, monitored systems and protected data flows with external partners.
