Additional Repeat Extension Partial Replacement
Published justification

This contract is for the continuation of the cyber security 'Security Operations Centre' service that the Council has been using for the last three years. Changing supplier would result in a disproportionate cost to the council due to uninstalling and removing tools and configuration which are already in place.

NG-IT were the reseller of the Arctic Wolf software on the original purchase.
