Common use of Security of Information Clause in Contracts

Security of Information. Unless otherwise specifically authorized by the DOH Chief Information Security Officer, Contractor receiving confidential information under this contract assures that: • Encryption is selected and applied using industry standard algorithms validated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program against all information stored locally and off-site. Information must be encrypted both in-transit and at rest and applied in such a way that it renders data unusable to anyone but authorized personnel, and the confidential process, encryption key or other means to decipher the information is protected from unauthorized access. • It is compliant with the applicable provisions of the Washington State Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) policy 141, Securing Information Technology Assets, available at: xxxxx://xxxx.xx.xxx/policy/securing-information-technology-assets. • It will provide DOH copies of its IT security policies, practices and procedures upon the request of the DOH Chief Information Security Officer. • DOH may at any time conduct an audit of the Contractor’s security practices and/or infrastructure to assure compliance with the security requirements of this contract. • It has implemented physical, electronic and administrative safeguards that are consistent with OCIO security standard 141.10 and ISB IT guidelines to prevent unauthorized access, use, modification or disclosure of DOH Confidential Information in any form. This includes, but is not limited to, restricting access to specifically authorized individuals and services through the use of: o Documented access authorization and change control procedures; o Card key systems that restrict, monitor and log access; o Locked racks for the storage of servers that contain Confidential Information or use AES encryption (key lengths of 256 bits or greater) to protect confidential data at rest, standard algorithms validated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CMVP); o Documented patch management practices that assure all network systems are running critical security updates within 6 days of release when the exploit is in the wild, and within 30 days of release for all others; o Documented anti-virus strategies that assure all systems are running the most current anti-virus signatures within 1 day of release; o Complex passwords that are systematically enforced and password expiration not to exceed 120 days, dependent user authentication types as defined in OCIO security standards; o Strong multi-factor authentication mechanisms that assure the identity of individuals who access Confidential Information; o Account lock-out after 5 failed authentication attempts for a minimum of 15 minutes, or for Confidential Information, until administrator reset; o AES encryption (using key lengths 128 bits or greater) session for all data transmissions, standard algorithms validated by NIST CMVP; o Firewall rules and network address translation that isolate database servers from web servers and public networks; o Regular review of firewall rules and configurations to assure compliance with authorization and change control procedures; o Log management and intrusion detection/prevention systems; o A documented and tested incident response plan Any breach of this clause may result in termination of the contract and the demand for return of all personal information.
