Social Security seeks services

The Social Security Administration needs a vendor for network intrusion protection services at its Baltimore headquarters. Services include weekly and monthly compliance tests of the agency's external network, including firewalls and Web servers, monthly audit reports, security advisories, technical support and provision of real-time intrusion detection technology.

The vendor should work closely with various global security organizations inside and outside the government community. Responses are due April 20. Contact Kathryn Fain at kathryn.fain@ssa.gov.
