Data protection lies at the heart of the latest e-government initiatives and public sector IT networks. Recent examples of data loss from portable devices highlight the need for robust systems to support increasingly flexible working practices but with minimum risk to security.
Celo Connect has been developed directly from public sector experience. It allows satellite branches, partners and remote workers to login securely to central systems and helps facilitate shared services.
Local authorities complying with Government Connect’s Code of Connection (CoCo), education establishments managing virtual learning environments, NHS Trusts, housing associations and central government departments can all benefit from the assurance that data held on their networks is controlled securely.

Customer Quotes
- Les Taylor (Director: Business Development & Information Systems, Disposal Services Authority), UK Ministry of Defence (MOD)
- “As an executive authority of the UK Ministry of Defence, the security of the DSA’s Internet based system www.edisposals.com is of paramount importance. In addition to the normal security expected for Internet-based systems, it was important that the solution would be both effective and easy to implement, and simple for Users to understand and use. Various systems were considered and Celo delivers exactly that: a simple yet highly effective solution that gives us the confidence that our systems remain safe from unwarranted intrusion.”
