a. Resolution R2023-060—A Resolution Approving the Annual Renewal of CrowdStrike Antivirus Software from GovConnection, Inc. of Merrimack, New Hampshire in the Amount of $48,476.27.
CrowdStrike was initially implemented in June 2022 and is currently due for annual renewal. The software works in real-time and continuously watches for malicious threats and suspicious activity, and works to remedy any threats to the County’s computer network. The County is required to utilize an antivirus software that contains Endpoint Detection Response (EDR) tools for the County Clerk per Illinois Public Act 102-0015, which pertains to requirements specific to election authorities. EDR tools offer a great benefit to the security of the network overall, not only the County Clerk. Staff identified CrowdStrike Antivirus Software as the antivirus that best suits the needs of the County, has Endpoint Detection Response tools, provides the greatest protection to the County’s network, and provides the best value to the County.
b. Resolution R2023-061—A Resolution Authorizing the Procurement of Computer Equipment from CDW Government of Chicago, Illinois in an Amount Not to Exceed $131,458.00 in Accordance with the County’s Computer Replacement Program.
The Information Management Office is seeking approval to purchase computer replacements on behalf of departments that participate in the Asset Replacement Fund (ARF) for FY23. Departments that participate in the ARF computer program set aside money each year so the funds are available when the time comes to replace their computers. New computers are typically deployed on a 5-year cycle. Computers that are replaced get used in other areas of the County,
if they are in a condition to reutilize. The ARF Budget for these Computer Replacement is $131,458.00 in FY2023.
