The state of Missouri is seeking a provider for a secure electronic veterinary medical records system designed with robust data protection and network security standards. The system must utilize encrypted protocols for all transmissions beyond basic web page viewing, including file transfers, data authentication, and access for both end-users and administrators.
Vendors must ensure the solution's database is segregated from front-end systems such as web and application servers, and this segregation approach should be clearly described. The entire system is required to operate behind a firewall to limit and protect access, and data must be kept strictly segregated from other customers. Further, all vendor-supplied defaults and unnecessary default accounts are to be changed or removed prior to system installation. The ability to immediately disable all or part of the system in the event of a security issue is also required.
Interested vendors should carefully address these requirements in their proposals. All questions regarding this opportunity must be submitted by January 5, 2026.
