RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Director of Child Support Services, or designee, to execute a contract, including modified indemnification language, with Optiv Security Inc., in an amount not to exceed $65,000 to provide professional installation services for a new firewall, and associated training, software subscriptions and support services for the period of July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This project will be fully funded by allocations from the Federal Government at 66% and State of California at 34%. There is zero cost to the County General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

The Department of Child Support Services' existing firewall hardware, installed 2011, has reached its end of life and must be upgraded. Current technical equipment is needed to support the bandwidth of upgraded infrastructure switches and planned telephony upgrade. On site training specific to the new equipment platform and updated software subscription versions will be provided. The contract also includes a support services package.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Denial of this action will result in increased risk to the Department's network security and threaten compliance with information security standards.
