D. Incident Response

Notification. The contractor must report all information security incidents that potentially or actually cause the compromise of OCC information, even if the contractor believes the security incident may be limited, small, or insignificant with respect to OCC data or systems. The OCC will determine when the contractor's reported security incident requires additional focus and attention.

Within one hour from the time the contractor validates that an information security incident has occurred, the contractor must report the security incident information to the OCC Cyber Defense Center (CDC): OSOC@occ.treas.gov, (202) 649-7930, regardless of day or time.

The contractor must provide any supplementary information or reports related to a previously reported incident directly to the OCC CDC with the following text in the subject line of the email: “Supplementary Information/Report related to previously reported incident # [insert incident number to be provided by contractor].”

Do NOT include any Sensitive Information in the subject or body of any e-mail. To transmit Sensitive Information, use the latest version of FIPS 140-2 or FIPS 140-3compliant encryption methods to protect Sensitive Information in attachments to email. Passwords must not be communicated in the same email as the attachment.

When notifying the OCC CDC, copy the Contracting Officer if possible or, if reporting by phone or Contracting Officer's email is not immediately available, contact the Contracting Officer immediately after reporting the incident to the OCC CDC.

E. Information Ownership

Government Access. The government will retain unrestricted rights to government data. The OCC retains ownership of any user created/loaded data and deliverables (e.g., documents, applications, custom code, diagrams, workflows, data sets, etc.) hosted on contractor's equipment, systems, infrastructure, etc., as well as maintains the right to request full copies of these at any time.

Removal of OCC Data. The contractor acknowledges the OCC's exclusive right of ownership of the information and is required to transfer, return, and/or delete all agency data collected, processed, stored or maintained by the contractor on behalf of OCC upon termination of services, and shall provide written certification and supporting documentation attesting to the transfer, return and/or deletion of agency information or data generated, collected, processed, maintained, or stored by the contractor and any subcontractors, per instructions the "Security and Privacy Vendor Deliverables" section.

Documents and Deliverables. The preliminary and final OCC-specific deliverables and all associated working papers are the property of the U.S. Government. The contractor shall not release any information without the written consent of the Contracting Officer. All work papers, preliminary and final deliverables must be submitted to the COR at the conclusion of the contract in an acceptable and usable format, which may include the original format.

eDiscovery. The contractor must ensure data preservation requirements (i.e., halt destruction and maintain data the contractor may not otherwise have to maintain) related to litigation holds are met. The contractor shall also ensure that metadata associated with litigation holds are preserved.

Metadata is electronically-stored information that describes the history, tracking, or management of an electronic document. It is created automatically when a user creates, modifies, accesses, or takes other actions with respect to an electronic document.

The contractor shall provide immediate access to all government data and government-related data impacting government data for review or scan, or conduct of a forensic evaluation, and physical access to any contractor facility with government data.

F. System Access

Government Right to Terminate Access. The OCC, at its discretion, may suspend or terminate the access to any systems and/or facilities when an information security incident or other electronic access violation, use or misuse issue gives cause for such action. The suspension or termination may last until such time as OCC determines that the situation has been corrected or no longer exists.

The system shall implement multi-factor authentication for remote users.

G. Training Requirements

Security Awareness Training. All contractor personnel with access to OCC data and systems must complete OCC-provided mandatory security and privacy training prior to gaining such access. Non-compliance may result in revocation of system access.

Role-Based Training. The contractor shall ensure that IT personnel supporting this contract complete eight (8) hours of role-based specialized IT security training on an annual basis. The contractor must identify the IT personnel and their respective IT role1 that they serve in support of this contract.

https://www.sam.gov/

(2) The Contractor is responsible for the currency, accuracy, and completeness of the information provided within SAM, and for any liability resulting from the Government’s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete information. Updating SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.

(c) Novation and change-of-name agreements.

(1) If the Contractor has legally changed its business name or “doing business as” name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used to perform the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in part 42 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day’s written notification of its intention to —
