Public trust doesn't survive a data breach headline.
HANDD helps government departments, agencies, and public bodies move citizen data securely, prevent it from leaking, defend against nation-state and AI-era threats, connect systems that were never built to talk to each other, and modernise the legacy platforms still running critical services.
Digital government promises speed. Citizens are still owed security.
Public sector bodies carry a distinct combination of pressures: citizen data that must move securely across departments and agencies, that same data at constant risk of leaking through everyday channels, a rising volume of nation-state and AI-assisted attacks against critical infrastructure, legacy mainframe and case-management systems that are expensive to run and near-impossible to replace, and digital transformation strategies that depend on systems talking to each other for the first time. Tackled separately, these become a different vendor and a different risk register for every problem.
HANDD brings Managed File Transfer, Data Loss Prevention, AI Security, iPaaS, Application Modernisation, and the services around them together under one operating model — so IT, security, and compliance teams work from the same evidence base.
Key industry challenges
Modern public services are being built on infrastructure that predates them.
Citizen data still crosses departments unmonitored
Physical media, email attachments, and legacy FTP scripts still move records between agencies outside any governed, auditable channel.
What it takes to keep patient data safe, compliant, and moving.
Managed File Transfer (MFT)
Replace physical media, email, and legacy FTP scripts with a single, governed platform for inter-agency records and citizen data exchange — encrypted, monitored, and fully auditable.
Connect case-management, records, and benefits systems through a single integration platform — enabling the cross-agency services digital strategies promise.
Delivered your way: every solution above can be consumed as a managed service — Compliance as a Service, MFT as a Service, or ongoing Managed Services support — so your team gets the outcome without carrying all of the operational load.
Compliance and governance
Every disclosure logged, every request accounted for.
Global Frameworks
ISO 27001, NIST CSF & Cyber Essentials
Encrypt citizen data in transit, enforce policy-backed transfer controls, and maintain the access logs government security frameworks require.
From national cybersecurity agencies to regional data protection authorities, we help public bodies meet local requirements with the same audit trail used globally.
MFT — secure transfer of case files and records between departments.
FOI & records request fulfilment
MFT — encrypted, monitored delivery of records in response to disclosure requests.
Citizen data leak prevention
DLP — stopping personal and welfare records leaving through email or endpoints.
Insider risk monitoring
DLP — flagging unusual access to sensitive citizen records by staff or contractors.
Critical infrastructure defence
AI Security — detecting and containing nation-state and AI-assisted attacks.
Governing AI in public services
AI Security — controlling how AI chatbots and decision tools access citizen data.
One-stop citizen service integration
iPaaS — connecting benefits, records, and case-management systems.
Legacy-to-cloud data integration
iPaaS — extending digital government initiatives to legacy back-office systems.
Mainframe & case-management modernisation
Application Modernisation — phased upgrade of critical government systems.
Digital-by-default service enablement
Application Modernisation — preparing legacy systems for online citizen services.
Secure Public Sector Data Flow
From siloed departments to a governed, auditable standard.
Assess
Map every inter-agency, citizen-facing, and third-party data flow, and identify where risk and compliance gaps sit today.
Secure
Apply encryption, role-based access, transfer policies, and key management aligned to ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and NACSA guidance.
Automate
Turn manual inter-agency, disclosure, and reporting handoffs into governed, repeatable workflows.
Monitor
Track transfer status, failed deliveries, and anomalous activity across the estate in one view.
Report
Produce audit-ready evidence for internal governance, external auditors, and regulators on request.
