AVALON – The borough is joining a program that will significantly enhance its cybersecurity at a price less than what the borough pays currently. The program, offered to small municipalities, provides subsidized CrowdStrike licenses and 24/7 managed detection and response services, both from CrowdStrike and the state cybersecurity division. Council member Gregory “Chet” Johnson said at the council’s May 27 meeting that the program would be a major benefit to the borough. “They are one of the two cybersecurity firms that the Fortune 100 firms turn to,” Johnson said. The program has the state paying for 100% of the cost of the software and services in year one and gradually incorporating percentage payments from the borough over the six years that follow.
