State & Local Governments

State and Local governments can take advantage of Pelco's participation under the US GSA Cooperative Purchasing Program, the authority for State and Local governments to purchase under schedule 84 Local Preparedness Acquisition Act.

Under this program, state and local governments can purchase alarm and signal systems, facility and management systems, firefighting and rescue equipment, law enforcement and security equipment, marine craft and related equipment, special purpose clothing, and related services (as contained in Federal Supply Classification Code Group 84 or any amended or subsequent version of that Federal Supply Classification Group.)

DIACAP & Information Assurance

Increasingly aware of potential susceptibilities to their network infrastructures, government organizations and private companies alike are demanding that systems residing on their networks meet set requirements to operate in a more secure manner. Many of these organizations are working with risk management programs such as DIACAP (DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) or NIACAP (National Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process. DIACAP, NIACAP and similar programs provide the framework for Systems Administrators to identify cyber risk areas, develop risk mitigation plans, certify systems for operation, while providing guidance for ongoing operation and maintenance.

To meet the needs of these kinds of installations, Pelco by Schneider Electric is developing a comprehensive Information Assurance program to:

• Remediate firmware and software for known cyber risks
• Support ongoing risk management programs like DIACAP and NIACAP
• Offer options in all Pelco product lines

Whether for DIACAP, NIACAP, or other risk mitigation installations, Pelco’s Information Assurance program addresses the needs of Systems Administrators for cyber threat attacks down to the device.
