About

London Borough of Islington awarded a contract to Softcat PLC for enhanced Zscaler Web-Proxy services.

The 24-month contract, valued at £400,300.62, was procured via G-Cloud 13.

The solution fully meets the Council's requirements in terms of technical ability, quality, support, and social value.

The increased dependence on Cloud-based ICT services exposed limitations in maintaining the security posture with traditional on-premises security appliances, prompting the need to enable enhanced features on the Cloud-based Web Proxy to avoid the cost of increasing on-premises security capability.
