Cyber Resiliency for Fog and Edge Computing Devices Service Direct to Phase II

The government authority in Washington, DC, seeks proposals for a Direct to Phase II effort to develop technology that prevents and mitigates cyber-attacks on fog and edge computing devices and associated networks. The vendor must provide a feasibility study demonstrating accomplishment of a Phase I-like effort, including an approach, architecture, and previous limited-scope prototype demonstration. The scope includes expanding cyber protection robustness, improving autonomous detection and response capabilities, and demonstrating devices that can fight through supply chain or remote exploit attacks. Performance of the work will be offsite. Only onshore USA organizations are eligible to bid. Offerors must disclose any proposed use of foreign nationals, who may be restricted under US Export Control Laws because the technology is ITAR and EAR restricted. Additionally, the project projects a Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification requirement of Level 2 (Self). The listing indicates that the buyer is looking for proposals, but it provides no specific budget amount or deadline.
