Board extends state-provided CrowdStrike EDR services for one year
Summary
Supervisors approved a one-year extension of a memorandum of understanding with the Iowa Department of Management to continue receiving CrowdStrike endpoint detection and response and security-operations services at no cost; staff said this will be the third year of the program.
The Black Hawk County Board of Supervisors voted on July 14 to extend a memorandum of understanding with the Iowa Department of Management for an additional year to receive CrowdStrike endpoint detection and response (EDR) software and state security-operations center services at no cost to the county.
A county IT representative said the extension is a straightforward one-year continuation and that this will be the third year the county has received the service through the state MOU. Supervisors asked how long the arrangement has run; staff confirmed it will be year three. The motion passed on the board’s voice/roll-call procedures without recorded opposition.
The extension preserves the county’s access to the vendor-provided endpoint protection and the state-supported monitoring services pending further action or termination of the MOU.
