The provision of a Managed Detection and Response Service

Office of Public Works (OPW)

OPW is aware that the landscape of Cyber Security is continually evolving and the task ofprotecting an organisation fromthreats to people, data assets and reputation is constant. Recent high profile Cyber Security Incidents in Ireland and across the globe have highlightedjust how wellorchestrated and operationally crippling a modern targeted cyberattack can be.It is obvious that traditional reactive security measures are not enough to prevent suchdisruptive events and,as a government office responsible to the management of criticalinfrastructure,OPW cannot allow its operations to beimpacted to suchan extent, if at all. To improve the current security posture forOPWwe have a requirement for the provision of a Managed Detectionand ResponseServicecoveringFirewalls,endpoints(PCs & servers),approximately 1,000mobile devices (Android)and cloud based services.OPW expects thenumber of mobile devices and users may grow considerablyin the coming years.
