(2) An authorized user accesses or potentially accesses PII for an unauthorized purpose.
"Information" is defined as any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, electronic, or audiovisual forms (See
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular
No. A-130, Managing Federal Information as a
Strategic Resource).
"Information System" is defined as a discrete set of information resources organized for the collection, processing, maintenance, use, sharing, dissemination, or disposition of information (44 U.S.C. 3502).
"Personally Identifiable Information" is defined as information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual's identity, either alone or when combined with other information that is linked or linkable to a specific individual. (See

Contractor shall meet OMB directives and National
Institute of Standards and Technology Standards to ensure processing of PII is adequately managed.

- Properly encrypt PII in accordance with appropriate laws, regulations, directives, standards or guidelines;
- Report to DOL any suspected or confirmed breach in any medium or form, including paper, oral, and electronic within one hour of discovery;
- Cooperate with and exchange information with
DOL (Contracting Officer and Contracting
Officer's Representative) as well as allow for an inspection, investigation, forensic analysis, as determined necessary by the DOL, in order to effectively report and manage a suspected or confirmed breach;
- Maintain capabilities to determine what DOL information was or could have been compromised and by whom, construct a timeline of user activity, determine methods and techniques used to access Federal information, and identify the initial attack vector;
- Ensure staff that have access to DOL systems or information are regularly trained to identify and report a security incident. This includes the completion of any DOL mandatory training for contractors;

Government costs incurred in the course of breach response and mitigation efforts;
- The contractor shall take steps to address
