# **A VPN Alternative for Local Governments**

The VPN, a powerful tool, is not appropriate for all users.

Learn how we can connect the digitally disenfranchised. Single Sign-on for all, 
regardless of partner or employee, full time or part-time. Multi-factor on anything,
even deeply legacy applications – WITHOUT granting full VPN access.

Learn how local governments can improve security, reduce risk, and increase ease
of use for all of your users without a VPN.

We’ll help you understand the specific risks of VPNs, the ways they have contributed
to recent cyber attacks, and a modern alternative to strengthen cyber security without
restricting access for authorized personnel.

## **Webinar Highlights **

Local Governments have many different systems to safeguard and manage. These can
include industrial control systems such as SCADA, HMIs in water treatment facilities,
ERP systems running payroll, and bylaw enforcement mobile applications, to name 
a few.

Partners may not be able to install your VPN software on their 3rd-party company
devices, and may bring unnecessary risks when it won’t participate with your central
authentication, or restrict users from signing in with their 3rd party corporate
credentials.

After attending this webinar, you’ll understand how to, without changing how you
do business, without rethinking the world, without commissioning an IT steering 
committee to study:

 * **Implement Secure Connectivity for Partners: **Deploy multi-factor authentication,
   single sign-on, least privilege access, and detailed audit trails organization-
   wide to lock down access, with simple, single-sign-on. No new credentials, no
   shared passwords.
 * **Enable Single Sign-On from Multiple Identity Providers: **Simplify the administrative
   overhead required to support all your users. Enable secure access for water systems,
   office teams, external vendors, and seasonal workers using their existing email,
   even on unmanaged devices. Audit per user, not per company.
 * **Eliminate Risk and Strengthen Cybersecurity: **Micro-segment access down to
   the device level, restricting access to only those that need it to protect your
   systems and resources. Reduce your attack surface and future-proof your infrastructure.
 * **Multi-factor where needed: **Legacy ERP? SSH to a router? HMI that doesn’t 
   seem to even have a first factor? See how to solve!
