AI Summary
Morgan State University seeks to establish a high-fidelity network visibility layer for 100% raw traffic monitoring, including encrypted data, to enhance cybersecurity without impacting system performance.
The purpose of this PWS is to establish a high-fidelity network visibility layer. This infrastructure will provide 100% visibility into all raw network traffic, including encrypted and high-speed data streams, without impacting the performance or security of the production environment. Background Current monitoring relies on "SPAN" or "Mirror" ports, which are software-dependent and prone to dropping packets during high traffic periods. To support the University’s cybersecurity mandates (such as NDR and Forensic Analysis), the institution requires a dedicated, passive hardware layer to ensure that no data is missed, altered, or delayed before reaching security tools.
SLED stands for State, Local, and Education. These are solicitations issued by state governments, counties, cities, school districts, utilities, and higher education institutions — as opposed to federal agencies.
