A government authority in California is seeking a vendor to provide Darktrace subscription renewal services. The solution must deliver enterprise-wide, AI-driven monitoring, detection, and response capabilities, incorporating continuous learning of normal network and system behavior to identify both anomalous and malicious activities.

The provider should offer comprehensive protection across network infrastructure, connected devices, email, and IoT systems. Key features include identification of novel, zero-day, and insider threats undetectable by traditional signature-based tools, as well as autonomous, real-time mitigation of threats using pre-configured response controls. The provider must also ensure automated and assisted incident investigation workflows that streamline analysis and response times.

Additional requirements involve continuous AI-driven monitoring of Microsoft 365 services to detect suspicious user behavior and account activity, with capabilities for detecting advanced threats that bypass native security measures. Solutions should feature AI-recommended remediation actions, supporting both automated and guided incident response workflows.
