The Netcraft Difference
Netcraft helps many of the largest global governments to protect their infrastructure, services, and citizens from a broad range of targeted cyber attacks. We safeguard against phishing attacks exploiting public sector entities, theft of government employee credentials, and attacks on critical government services.
Exposed Services Threaten Citizens
Governments manage massive amounts of sensitive data to deliver effective services for their citizens — with notoriously limited security budgets, making them an attractive target for cybercriminals.
Operational complexity
Fragmented vendors, regulatory constraints, and cross-departmental inefficiencies slow incident response.
Reactive Threat Response
Insufficient real-time threat visibility slows response times, overwhelms security teams, and delays takedowns.
Increase In Threat Sophistication
Nation states, cybercrime syndicates, and advanced threat actors adapt their tactics to exploit citizen vulnerability to scams.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the public sector an attractive target for cybercriminals?
Governments — central and local — manage huge amounts of sensitive data, making them attractive targets for cybercriminals who can monetize unauthorized access by conducting (for example) ransomware attacks.
Why are government brands often used to create phishing attacks?
Cybercriminals often spoof government departments and agencies because there’s an implicit amount of trust in what appears to be official communications. And, as government services are increasingly delivered online, citizens become accustomed to interacting with officials via email, SMS, and online. Cybercriminals exploit these technology-based conveniences.
How does Netcraft help prevent government brands from being exploited in this way?
We receive phishing reports from industry partners, spam emails, and our anti-phishing community. With this information, we are uniquely positioned to monitor the internet for these attacks. Attacks impersonating official services are blocked in our threat feeds before they can cause harm, protecting billions of people.
How does Netcraft take down phishing attacks?
We automatically identify hosting providers, domain registrars, webmasters, and others — and we determine how to notify them most effectively (via email, API, private contact, or otherwise). We gather and present evidence of the cyberattack to demonstrate the problem to those with the ability to take down the attack
What is a ransomware attack?
A ransomware attack is when users are unable to access their computers, systems, or data until the target pays the ransom to a cybercriminal (normally in the form of cryptocurrency). The criminals behind ransomware attacks may also threaten to publish sensitive material.
How has Netcraft helped governments, like the UK, protect their citizens from cyber attacks?
Since 2016, Netcraft has provided takedown services for the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre. Netcraft’s service takes down phishing attacks from cybercriminals purporting to be from UK government departments. We have also disrupted a number of phishing attempts masquerading as legitimate government departments as a result.
