HOW ENZOIC HELPS

Secure Critical Government Institutions and Services

From city governments and county agencies to law enforcement and public utilities, state and local entities are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals exploiting compromised credentials. These attackers don’t need zero-days—they need a single exposed password to unlock access to sensitive systems, steal data, or deploy ransomware.

State and local government agencies are prime targets due to dispersed networks containing vast amounts of personal information. Just one bad password can disrupt critical services, endanger public safety, and lead to serious financial losses for the community.

With 68% lacking dedicated funding for major cybersecurity initiatives, identity-based threats have become one of the most pressing cybersecurity challenges facing the public sector. These attacks frequently bypass traditional perimeter defenses—targeting users directly through phishing, credential stuffing, and brute-force tactics.

To maintain operational continuity and protect sensitive data, public agencies must adopt stronger credential security. Enzoic enforces modern password standards, continuously monitors for exposed credentials on the dark web, and helps agencies safeguard the critical services citizens rely on every day—without burdening IT staff.

Protect the Systems Citizens Depend On

Cyberattacks on government agencies don’t just threaten IT infrastructure—they disrupt real-world services that citizens rely on every day. From utility billing and payroll to public safety databases and election systems, access to critical systems must be tightly secured.

Compliance mandates like the CJIS, NIST SP 800-63B, and New York’s SHIELD Act all stress the importance of protecting credentials tied to sensitive data. Enzoic helps agencies meet these standards by continuously monitoring for compromised credentials, blocking commonly used and breached passwords, and providing real-time alerts before damage occurs.

By proactively addressing credential risk, agencies can reduce exposure to ransomware, account takeover (ATO), and data theft—while preserving operational uptime and public trust.

Always-On Credential Defense for Government Agencies

Legacy security controls can’t keep pace with the speed and scale of modern threats. Enzoic gives government agencies a proactive way to strengthen authentication and defend against identity-based attacks.

  • Monitor Credentials Against Live Breach Data
    Enzoic checks passwords and usernames against real-time dark web exposure data, helping you detect risk before attackers exploit it.
  • Block Unsafe Passwords—Before They’re Set
    Prevent users from choosing weak, reused, or compromised credentials in Active Directory. Enzoic enforces NIST SP 800-63B password guidelines automatically.
  • Simplify Compliance with CJIS and NIST
    Enzoic helps agencies align with critical public sector compliance standards by embedding password screening, exposure monitoring, and enforcement into daily operations—without user disruption.
  • Flexible Integration with Active Directory and APIs
    Enzoic deploys seamlessly on your domain controllers and integrates via API into authentication platforms—making it easy to prevent account takeover (ATO) attacks without adding operational burden.

Simple and Secure

Effortlessly enhance the security of your authentication with zero disruption to your workforce. Prevent account takeover by staying updated with the latest threat intelligence data to identify and remediate compromised credentials in your environment.

Compliance Ready

Continually monitor data and stay compliant with government regulations. Follow best password policy recommendations from NIST and CJIS, and immediately know and remediate when passwords and credentials become compromised.

Lighten IT workload

Decrease costs and time spent on antiquated password practices, including time-based resets. Automatically check user credentials for compromise to ensure users set secure passwords and that their credentials remain secure.
