Abnormal for State and Local Government
Attackers Target Government Agencies for Valuable Data
Threat actors know that state and local governments have troves of data and access to critical operational processes. Unfortunately, they’re also aware that these organizations often don’t have enterprise-level security tools to keep them out. The result is an ongoing wave of disruptive, costly incidents involving city, county, and state agencies.
Legacy Security Tools Can’t Block Advanced Threats
Traditional email security tools like secure email gateways aren’t designed to detect advanced socially-engineered attacks. Modern threat actors exploit common psychological vulnerabilities as well as trusted names and relationships to trick or pressure recipients into sharing information, downloading malware, or transferring funds.

Abnormal’s cloud-native solution integrates with Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace in minutes and uses thousands of signals across identity, behavior, and content to separate legitimate messages from dangerous threats. Because Abnormal recognizes anomalies even in ongoing conversations, it immediately detects and remediates threats that legacy systems miss—keeping state and local government agencies secure and operational.
