NNG15SC65B/31310019F0096 Page 4 of 9 The professional services shall provide onsite or remote system design and integration support from highly skilled vendor specialists with extensive experience in implementation of EnCase Enterprise solutions for collection, management, and analysis of information for digital forensic.

Brand Name Justification:

The NRC requires maintenance of the EnCase software. The NRCs Office of Inspector General (OIG) and OCIO both use EnCase and EnCase is in production at the NRCs data center. It is impractical to switch to any other product at this point. The professional services will help the NRC optimize the use of EnCase products at the NRC. NRC has been using EnCase for many years and still requires the use of EnCase. It uniquely meets NRCs needs by performing forensics and malware analysis using the same tool. It can be used by law enforcement and the operations security branch. The cost of buying another tool is prohibitive. Based on NRCs market research, the only viable competitor is FTK. Even though FTK could meet the NRCs requirements, the NRC does not intend to replace its investment in EnCase. To do so would cause the NRC to incur significant additional cost, would be highly disruptive and would introduce significant risk to the NRC. Not only would NRC need to totally reconfigure its data center, install the new tool, and obtain Technical Reference Model approval, NRC would also need to train its system administrators and users of the applications.
