Enabling Secure e-Government
Due to a number of public sector initiatives, an increasing number of public sector services are now available online. In particular, the UK e-Government office is dedicated on getting all Government services online by 2005. GeoTrust has developed a number of solutions that are designed to aid public sector bodies in securing their online services by providing the necessary security, trust and authentication. In particular, GeoTrust has developed fast, cost effective and standards based solutions designed to aid public sector bodies in ensuring that:
- The public sector infrastructure is secure and resilient
- Transactions conducted via the infrastructure and via wider communities
are secure and private
- Universal access can be enabled through strong user authentication and
trust services

GeoTrust is the Certification Authority behind SecureMark, and also provides SSL solutions for many Government bodies and Univesities, including the Scottish Parliament, the Patent Office, many local councils, Leeds University and Loughborough University amongst others.

Public Sector Drivers
E-Government is central to the modernisation of the UK Government. The Priority Service & National Strategy transformation outcomes for local e-government in December 2005 has been defined to have 100% e-enablement of Government services by 2005. Strong and managable security will play an increasingly important role in meeting the public sector requirements for the transition of services online.
GeoTrust is focused on assisting all levels of Government bodies, no matter what the size of the project, in e-enabling their services.
