Like many organizations, BDC is facing increasing security, compliance and confidentiality challenges in the day-to-day management of its private or public data, regardless whether the environments are cloud, hybrid or on-premise. As part of BDC’s InfoSec Roadmap for 2020-2021, BDC initiated a Crypto project to acquire and implement cryptography technology and its management environments. This will enable BDC to apply the best practices for encryption and keys/certificates management residing in a highly secure vault. As such, BDC wants to modernize and automate the existing internal and external PKI infrastructure while maintaining a healthy chain of trust.
BDC is looking for a Cryptographic Vault (“Cryptographic Vault”). This solution should allow for agility and significant cost reduction in operations. In addition, the selected bidder will be the responsible for ensuring the security of BDC’s data.
The purpose of this prequalification process is to assess the interested bidders’ technical and managerial competency as well as their financial soundness. It will be based on a transparent, qualitative sound assessment of all the solutions and bidders.
