Nobody joins the civil service to do cutting edge technical cybersecurity. I don't know what sort of special reasons you have for so called 'serving' in gov organizations, but if it's the usual stuff like job security, high starting pay, sponsorship for studies etc. then it comes with the territory.

If you cannot take it and want to specialize in niche technical career paths, then go find a proper IT MNC or if cannot go for the small specialized tech startups.
