Case study: NSW Department of Commerce, jobs.nsw
The jobs.nsw recruitment website is used by government agencies in New South Wales for posting vacancies and downloading job applications. Candidates apply online and can attach documents to support their application, increasing the danger of viruses and other malware infecting government IT systems. SAV Interface was chosen to integrate with the website to counteract the threat of infection.
“Using SAV Interface has added value to our innovative service, allowing us to protect many government networks from virus infection.”
