RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute a purchase order on behalf of the Sheriff-Coroner with Optiv Security, Inc. in the amount of $135,000 for the purchase of a Palo Alto Networks Firewall for the Office of the Sheriff.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$105,000 - 78% Homeland Security Grant 2017 (Y7A) funded
$30,000 - 22% General Fund, Budgeted

BACKGROUND:

A firewall is a network device used to prevent access into and out of the Sheriff's Office secure network. It is a requirement to have a firewall in place between the network and the internet to meet the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) security. Without this, no law enforcement agencies in the County can access the California Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (CLETS). The Sheriff's Office Tech Services Division uses the Palo Alto firewalls to filter users from going to inappropriate websites and prevent potential hackers from accessing critical data. The firewalls currently in place are over five years old. It is the County standard to replace this equipment every three years, no more than five years.
