A cybersecurity assessment project is being initiated for the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) network in California. The selected vendor will be responsible for conducting a comprehensive inventory of the current SCADA infrastructure, identifying assets, and evaluating the existing security posture.

Responsibilities include providing guidance on industry best practices for SCADA operations and security, recommending upgrades and enhancements to meet modern security standards, and developing a detailed roadmap for redesigning the SCADA network. The assessment and recommendations must address operational technology (OT) considerations, with a focus on minimizing operational disruptions, ensuring safety and availability, and overcoming challenges posed by legacy systems.

This one-year contract offers an opportunity for vendors with expertise in SCADA network security and operational resilience to contribute to enhancing the security, reliability, and efficiency of critical infrastructure.
