DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Corpus Christi, Texas, seeks a vendor to provide firewall refresh services under a three-year contract. The solution must consist of a single next-generation firewall platform deployed as a two-device high-availability pair, capable of handling North-South and East-West traffic, with minimum firewall throughput of 100 Gbps and SSL/TLS decryption capabilities.
The firewall solution must eliminate single points of failure through automatic failover, support application function control, identify and control applications sharing the same connection, separate the local area network from the public internet, support multiple VPN sessions, and provide real-time threat prevention. The vendor will also be responsible for accurately identifying the fiber optics, fiber, and cable lengths required for equipment installed in the data center.
The solution must include advanced monitoring and analytics, including behavioral and anomaly-based traffic analysis, real-time dashboards, automated threshold-based alerting, and integration with the authority's SIEM or log-management platform through industry-standard protocols. On-site support must be available within 24 hours of a request. Questions are due by October 9, 2026.
