- Description
- The Bureau of Indian Affairs issue an award for Snort technical support and signature updates annual subscription from Sourcefire on an other than full and open competition basis in accordance with FAR 6.302-1(A)(2) to Immix Technology. It is the intent of this office to purchase the daily Sourcefire Snort signature vulnerability feeds. The daily Sourcefire vulnerability feeds will allow keep BIA distributed Snort intrusion detection sensors current with the latest in exploits detection. The present method is to down load the free Snort signatures. Those signatures are thirty days behind the paid subscription signature feeds. Thirty days for the free signature download or the paid subscription for the up to date and daily updates of the Snort vulnerability signatures. The existing method of downloading the free thirty day old signature feed is inadequate. If the BIA were on the Internet, attacks will not be waiting thirty days for the free Snort IDS signatures to be downloaded. If the BIA were exposed to attacks from the Internet those attacks would be occurring at Internet speed. Sourcefire does provide a daily vulnerability and exploit signatures which can be downloaded from the Internet to the Snort sensor automatically and without human intervention. The automatic daily update of the Snort signatures is the best way to stay current with Internet based threats. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all proposals received within fifteen days after date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. No formal solicitation shall be issued. You may submit your interest via fax to Herbert Payne at 703-390-6582 or contact me at 703-390-6472.
