GovLINK is a cost-effective solution that enables secure communications between Commonwealth agencies across public infrastructure. Through using this service, over 100 Commonwealth agencies can share and receive encrypted communications, up to and including the security classification of PROTECTED.
GovLINK uses authenticated, encrypted links between participating agencies to create a secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) across the internet. An accredited certificate authority provides digital certificates and the public key infrastructure necessary for a scalable and manageable VPN.
GovLINK is an effective method to meet Information Security Manual (ISM) requirements for encryption of information in transit.
