Notice Title

The Provision of In-House domains vulnerability management - Beta and Live

Notice Description

The buyer is looking for a supplier to work alongside to develop the Beta and Live phases of the project to improve how Public Sector organisations with large numbers of domains and subdomains manage vulnerabilities and ingest external data to monitor and fix their domain-related cyber vulnerabilities. The aims of this project are to reduce the time that domain-related cyber vulnerabilities are open for exploitation, and hence reduce the Government's overall exposure to cyber risk, through providing public sector organisations with: - Timely visibility of the internet-facing digital footprint including any domains vulnerabilities and domain-adjacent vulnerabilities; - Clarity on the business impact of the cyber risks that these vulnerabilities carry; - Clarity on what action to take to address these vulnerabilities, and the necessary senior support and resources to execute such action quickly. How to Apply: Bidders on the framework RM1043.8 Lot 1 were invited to participate in the bidding process.
