GovPlace is a secure, whole‑of‑government (WofG) protected enclave, built on the well-established and highly reliable GovTEAMS PROTECTED platform. It is provided by the Department of Finance for Australian Government agencies.
GovPlace offers a supported PROTECTED‑level environment with essential tools and applications that enable secure collaboration across government. Whether an agency already operates its own enclave, uses an existing collaboration solution, or does not yet have a PROTECTED environment, GovPlace provides a ready‑to‑use option that reduces complexity, delivers value for money, and accelerates delivery.
Using proven WofG technology, GovPlace advances our Data and Digital Government Strategy as a trusted, secure, and scalable service available throughout the Australian Government.
