Securing mission-critical documents and content

The speed and volume of information powering agencies and citizen experiences are expanding exponentially. Amid rising geopolitical and cyber risks, information in transit, at rest, or in use is increasingly vulnerable. Equipped with document and content security controls, agencies can keep information confidential, accessible, and useable by authorised parties while maximising its integrity.

That’s why at Adobe, we see Zero Trust as essential to user trust.

Adapting information security to modern operating environments

A spectrum of risks arise when information is compromised, from erosion of citizen and workforce trust to public safety. In response, agencies can apply the Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability (CIA) information security framework across the content lifecycle and enhance useability and decision-making.

Confidential and protected access and usage

With access management controls, the ‘need to know’ can be established, mitigating risks of unauthorised viewing and sharing of sensitive information.
• Establish authorisation, access and usage controls to the attribute layer.
• Encrypt information and employ intelligent redaction at any stage.

Document and content integrity and trust

Decision-makers rely on the accuracy and veracity of information. Continuous verification and tracking ensure unauthorised parties are not tampering with information.
• Automate risk detection and audit content provenance in real-time
• Use identity management to authenticate users and certificates to validate document integrity.

Information availability and scalability

Teams need secure access to information and resources across devices, storage locations and networks, with maximum uptime during a crisis.
• Embed controls and authorisations once and scale across digital storage locations.
• Encrypt information and publish securely across channels.

Speed of decision-making and collaboration

Information must move at the pace of decision-making in complex and everyday settings. Secure collaboration and access to trusted and useable information enables effective operations.
• Set up policies for secure workflows, versioning and approvals.
• Modernisation of content formats, functions, and user interfaces.
