DESCRIPTION

The government authority in Long Beach, California is seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive managed security services. The selected service provider will deliver a unified, scalable security solution encompassing proactive threat monitoring, compliance assistance, and rapid incident response. Core requirements include 24/7 security event monitoring, leveraging advanced event correlation and analytics through a SIEM platform with the capability to manage up to 150,000 devices.

The service must utilize specialized technological tools for real-time collection, correlation, and analysis of security events to ensure effective distinction between legitimate and malicious network traffic. Support for multiple vendor products—specifically relevant EDR, NGFW, content filtering, DNS, and other critical infrastructure components—is required. Both onsite and offsite logging capabilities must be addressed, with near real-time detection enabled by a 24/7 SOC and automated alerting. The system should allow for polling, triggering, or discovery of alerts through automated scanning and reporting.

A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for April 21, 2026, and all questions regarding the RFP must be submitted by April 27, 2026.
