DESCRIPTION
A government authority in Parsippany, New Jersey is seeking a vendor to provide cyber external scanning services. The selected provider will conduct external vulnerability assessments on a recurring basis, including no less than weekly port and vulnerability scanning of all public IP addresses, domains and subdomains, domain name records, URLs, web applications, VPN and remote access portals, and email gateways. The service must also detect unknown or shadow IT assets and newly exposed systems within 24 hours.
The scope includes non-invasive testing only, with no activity that would be considered disruptive to normal network operations. The selected vendor will provide at least monthly external vulnerability scanning reports, delivered in a password-protected or encrypted format, identifying vulnerabilities and assigning color-coded severity risk scores.
In addition, the provider will perform monthly vulnerability mapping for external in-scope perimeter hosts. Reporting is expected to identify application-level vulnerabilities, map findings to the Common Vulnerability Scoring System, and highlight missing security patches, externally visible subdomains and email addresses, web services linking to malicious content, misconfigured externally visible devices, and potentially unwanted or unmanaged software. Questions are due by July 22, 2026.
