Summary: This MSSP contract will provide Cook County a comprehensive set of Monitoring and Professional Security Services to enhance the cybersecurity posture on all critical information technology both on site and cloud based. Without this service, Cook County would need to hire and fully staff an onsite 24X7 security operation center that would require hiring, at a minimum, an additional 21 full time government employees as well as build out the infrastructure to house and provide this service. The cost in the first year alone could approach the full four-year cost of the contract. The services provided through this agreement will support Bureau of Technology’s (“BOT”) ability to provide services to all County agencies.
This contract will directly be replacing an expiring contract that has proven to be successful in protecting critical Cook County information and IT resources during the life of the contract. This contract was competitively bid and followed all Cook County procurement requirements as well as all Federal acquisition requirements; the contract will potentially be funded with Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) funding.
The selected vendor had significant expertise shown in their response that included 3 detailed examples of successfully providing this service for other government organizations by both the Prime Vendor and Vendor Partner on this proposal.
The selected Proposer, at a minimum, will provide the following objectives:
• Monitor of all ISO technologies that are within scope.
• Manage most ISO technologies and afterhours management of the remaining ISO technologies.
• Provide Threat Intelligence Services for all ISO technologies.
• Alert/Report all ISO technologies.
• Develop support documentation and training for staff on process.
This contract is awarded through Request for Proposals (RFP) procedures in accordance with Cook County Procurement Code. Deloitte was selected based on established evaluation criteria.
