ED Security Safeguards Sample Clauses

ED Security Safeguards. ED’s FPS facility is located in Clarksville, VA and meets all security standards set forth in the most current version of NIST SP 800-53. Access within the processing facility is controlled by a computerized badge reading system, while other areas are controlled by cipher locks with combinations that are changed monthly. All employees must display a photo identification pass upon entering the building. The perimeter of the facility is monitored periodically and the main entrance is monitored continuously by a third-party security force. Access to all doors, as well as to the data center’s main corridors, is monitored by 12 closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras that can pan, zoom, and record the perimeter premises. The facility monitors access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The CCTV cameras can record access at random or at a specific camera location. The cameras are connected to two videocassette recorders for recording purposes. Videotapes are retained for one month before being recycled by physical security administration.

Access to this information is controlled in accordance with a strict set of security procedures documented in the FPS System Security Plan. Automated audit trails are maintained for all user activities and interactions within the FPS. Additionally, all changes made by authorized users of the FPS to the FAFSA data result in a new transaction, which also has a specified audit trail. All authorized users of the FPS are issued a unique user identifier and asked to establish and maintain a secure password that must be changed every 90 days to be compliant with this Access control requirement. All personnel, including contractor personnel, who have access to the records exchanged and to any records created by the verification will have completed IT Security and Privacy Awareness training about the confidential nature of the information, the safeguards required to protect the information, and the civil and criminal sanctions for noncompliance imposed under ...
