The contract value is GBP 500,000, scheduled to start on December 31, 2022, and end on December 30, 2027. The main procurement category is services, and the tender period ended on November 17, 2022.

## Notice

Housing 21 required a new Security Operation Centre (SOC) to improve their security posture in 2 key areas: 1. To provide 24/7 monitoring of the Housing 21 IT estate via an external dedicated cyber security company, being able to provide initial triage of security alerts, take immediate containment actions in the event of a cyber security incident and escalate to the Housing 21 security team. 2. And to provide consolidated visibility and centralised audit logging of core servers, enabling server security logging to be stored centrally to prevent destruction or tampering of the audit logs and enable quicker cyber security incident response.
