Enable local governments with secure and cost-effective remote working solutions

For local governments, mobile or remote work is becoming more and more important. However, many cities and municipalities are bound by strict security measures as well as dependencies on older or legacy software and infrastructure limits.

Challenges with remote working

Local governments often work with private citizen data and therefore need to comply with a multitude of privacy and security regulations.

However, because many of the specialized applications used by a municipal government still need to be installed on a device, employees are neglecting to follow those measures to be productive while on the go or working remotely. Furthermore, it can be cumbersome to monitor a network of remote locations or keep track of teams working in the field.
