What is Govroam?

In an ever more flexible, resilient and collaborative public sector, staff need to connect to the internet and to systems at their home organisation, in multiple locations, using any device – whether they’re managers, members of the emergency services, or people in multidisciplinary teams. Govroam, short for Government Roaming, is a secure private Wi-Fi network exclusively for public sector staff enabling seamless connectivity.

Public sector staff can access the Govroam network provided by any participating organisation, using a single, securely authenticated signon managed by their own organisation. Visiting staff can access any Govroam-enabled guest network in the same way, using their own sign-on credentials, reducing the time spent managing guest accounts.
