E-government initiatives aim to respond to the challenges of meeting the growing demands of their citizens and businesses for more efficient service delivery. But e-government projects will never reach their full potential without an efficient underlying network infrastructure. This infrastructure has to securely transmit sensitive information, and deliver mission-critical applications at the same high speed to big, central organizations as well as smaller user groups at the network edges. It must offer sufficient flexibility to add new features in a nondiscretionary fashion, protecting existing network investment. This paper describes how the Cisco Full Service Branch solution provides a crucial tool to help increase the effectiveness of any e-government initiative.
