Description

St Helens Council is looking to procure IT Security Assurance services in the form of penetration tests and vulnerability scanning. This will include the services required to meeting our existing compliance requirements around PSN, PCI, NHS Digital Data Security Protection Toolkit (DSPT) and others but may also include the other optional call off services.
As a local authority, we provide a wide range of services to our internal officers and to the service users. IT is a key enabler for the provision of these services. The council is in the process of transitioning the majority of the IT service provision to "the cloud", instead of from our existing on-premise data centres.
