Purpose

To obtain authorization to contract for a Security Risk Assessment for the election systems

Background

 Sauk County has been awarded an election security subgrant from the Wisconsin Elections Commission for the purpose of enhancing election technology security.  A condition of this grant is that the County perform a Security Risk Assessment (SRA) of our current election systems. 

 

In September, the MIS Department deployed a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit qualified vendors to perform this assessment.  Through this process, fourteen proposals were received and evaluated by the MIS project team.  Based on this evaluation a vendor was selected for this project.  This resolution seeks authorization to contract with the selected vendor to perform this assessment.
