Managed Security Services (MXDR Solution)

The Council for Medical Schemes is inviting proposals from qualified service providers to deliver managed security services through an MXDR (Managed Extended Detection and Response) solution. This 12-month engagement is critical for enhancing the cybersecurity posture of the organization, ensuring the protection of sensitive medical scheme data against evolving cyber threats. The selected provider will be responsible for continuous monitoring, threat detection, incident response, and security management, leveraging advanced technologies and expertise in the field.

Key requirements include the ability to implement a comprehensive security framework, provide 24/7 monitoring, and deliver timely incident response services. Providers must demonstrate experience in managing security for similar organizations and possess relevant certifications. The successful implementation of this solution will not only safeguard the Council's data but also contribute to the overall integrity and trustworthiness of medical schemes in South Africa, thereby benefiting stakeholders and the public at large.
