Green Dot Public Schools Request For Proposal: Network Detection And Response (NDR) Cybersecurity Solution

Green Dot Public Schools is seeking a comprehensive Network Detection and Response (NDR) solution to protect its K‑12 district network. The project requires a hybrid deployment (on‑premise sensors and a cloud‑hosted management console) capable of monitoring at least 18,000 devices and 12,000 users, processing ≥10 Gbps of traffic, and providing AI/ML‑driven threat detection, automated response, and integration with the district’s existing security stack (Cisco, Aruba, Palo Alto, CrowdStrike, Microsoft 365, Stellar Cyber SIEM/SOAR, etc.). The contract includes hardware, software subscription, professional services, training, and three‑year warranty/support, with optional two‑year extensions. Funding is contingent on FCC Cybersecurity Pilot Program approval, and billing will be done via FCC Form 474.
