RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract with Palo Alto Networks, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $112,820 for the GlobalProtect cyber security software for the Office of the Sheriff, for the period July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2027.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this request will result in a one-time expenditure of $112,820 and will be funded 68% by the Homeland Security Grant FY22 and 32% by the General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
Palo Alto Networks, Inc. (PAN) participated in a competitive selection process and was awarded the contract (RFP 2308-679). PAN is an industry leader in providing hardware and software firewall solutions. The Sheriff’s Office has PAN hardware and software installed at multiple locations within the department. This purchase will add GlobalProtect software to the two firewall devices in the data center located in the Emergency Operations Center (EOC).
GlobalProtect enables organizations to protect the mobile workforce by extending the Next-Generation Security Platform to all users, regardless of location. It secures traffic by applying the platform’s capabilities to understand application use, associate the traffic with users and devices, and enforce security policies with next-generation technologies.
With an increase in staff working remotely and vendors and providers needing remote access to the Sheriff’s Office’s network, GlobalProtect is needed to increase security or remote access to the SO network and resources.
This End User License Agreement allows the Office of the Sheriff to renew support to ensure software updates and issues can be appropriately addressed. Palo Alto Networks, Inc. does not sell direct to customers, therefore it will be purchased through AT&T, a third-party reseller.
This End User License Agreement includes a limitation of liability provision.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the Board does not approve, the firewall protection will remain as is, leaving remote access to the Office of the Sheriff network open to potential hacks and intrusions.
