THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The district reviewed a Cybersecurity Hygiene Report and a proposal from NC DPI, MCNC, and NC State’s Friday Institute to provide a virtual CISO (vCISO) and related services. The partnership would address about 80% of identified vulnerabilities with tools like CrowdStrike, KnowBe4, runZero, free MCNC resources, and an eRate-funded cybersecurity grant; the vCISO delivers 120 hours over 3 months at no cost to the district. This establishes an organized cybersecurity program, which will likely drive follow-on needs for tools, training, incident response, and policy support beyond the grant scope.
SCS current cybersecurity score is 36% of state average; effort focuses on sustainability, emergency response training, and staff training.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Scotland County Schools's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
