Cybersecurity & IT Solutions for Government Agencies and Contractors
Cities, special districts, and the contractors who serve them run critical services on budgets set a year in advance. They are also among the most targeted organizations in the country, because service disruption creates public pressure to pay.
Bytagig supports small public agencies and the private firms that hold government contracts, with controls mapped to the frameworks these organizations are actually measured against.
We deliver remote-first managed IT and cybersecurity backed by a 24/7 Security Operations Center, with certified field technicians dispatched when you need hands on-site.

Frameworks Public Agencies and Contractors Actually Deal With
Which apply depends on whether you are the agency or the firm serving it.
CJIS Security Policy
Any agency or vendor touching criminal justice information, including police departments, courts, and their IT providers, must meet CJIS requirements on advanced authentication, encryption, audit logging, and personnel screening. We build and document those controls.
CMMC 2.0 and NIST 800-171
Contractors holding Department of Defense work carry these obligations, and many firms supporting a base through logistics, facilities, IT, or professional services do not realize their contract is in scope. We assess scope, close gaps, and build the System Security Plan and POA&M an assessor expects.
NIST Cybersecurity Framework
The common language most public agencies use to describe their security posture to a council, a board, or an insurer. We assess against it and give you a scored, prioritized roadmap.
Public records and retention
Email and records retention obligations mean deletion policy is a legal question, not an IT preference. We configure retention to match your policy and preserve what the law requires.
State breach notification law
Oregon and Washington both set notice requirements for public bodies, on timelines separate from those for private businesses. We build the monitoring and response that makes those deadlines achievable.
Working Within Public Sector Constraints
The technical problems are ordinary. The constraints are not.
Budget cycles and procurement
Costs that are predictable and defensible in a public meeting, structured so they fit a fiscal year rather than surprising it.
Legacy systems that cannot be replaced
Permitting, utility billing, and dispatch systems often run on software no longer supported. We segment and monitor them rather than pretending they will be replaced this year.
Small or single-person IT departments
Co-managed support that backs up your internal person rather than displacing them, including coverage when they are on vacation or out sick.
Continuity for essential services
Water, emergency dispatch, and permitting cannot wait for a recovery window. Those systems get documented, tested recovery plans ahead of everything else.
Multi-entity environments
Districts and joint agencies often share systems across separate legal entities. We build access boundaries that match the org chart.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with CJIS requirements?
Yes. We build and document the advanced authentication, encryption, audit logging, and personnel screening controls that CJIS requires of agencies and their vendors, and we sign the agreements that come with it.
We are a contractor, not an agency. Does CMMC apply to us?
It depends on your contract. Many firms supporting a base through logistics, facilities, healthcare, or IT work carry CMMC obligations without realizing it. We start with a scope review so you know before a prime or an assessor asks.
How do you handle public records retention?
We configure email and file retention to match your adopted policy, preserve what the law requires, and document the configuration so it can be explained to counsel or a requester.
Can you work alongside our existing IT person?
Yes. Co-managed support is common in public agencies. We take the load your internal person cannot carry, including 24/7 monitoring and coverage when they are out.
How do we budget for this in a fiscal year?
We price on a predictable per-user basis so the line item is stable and defensible in a public meeting. Call (833) 465-5913 and we will build the number with you.
What does managed IT cost for an agency our size?
Public agencies typically spend between $125 and $225 per user per month for a fully managed plan, with CJIS and CMMC environments toward the upper range due to documentation requirements.
