The Ordering Activity shall assign a required impact level for confidentiality, integrity and availability (CIA) prior to issuing the initial statement of work.2 The Contractor must be capable of meeting at least the minimum security requirements assigned against a low‐impact information system in each CIA assessment area (per FIPS 200) and must detail the FISMA capabilities of the system in each of CIA assessment area.

iii. Agency level FISMA certification, accreditation, and evaluation activities are the responsibility of the Ordering Activity. The Ordering Activity reserves the right to independently evaluate, audit, and verify the FISMA compliance for any proposed or awarded Cloud Computing Services. Per Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 199 & 200 (FIPS 199, “Standards for Security Categorization of Federal Information and Information Systems”) (FIPS 200, “Minimum Security Requirements for Federal Information and Information Systems”)

iv. The Ordering Activity has final responsibility for assessing the FedRAMP status of the service, complying with and making a risk‐based decision to grant an Authorization to Operate (ATO) for the cloud computing service, and continuous monitoring. A memorandum issued by the Office of Management www.ctisinc.com | Tel: (301) 948-3033 | Fax: (301) 948-2242 Page 14 of 61 and Budget (OMB) on Dec 8, 2011 outlines the responsibilities of Executive departments and agencies in the context of FedRAMP compliance.

v. Ordering activities are responsible for determining any additional information assurance and security related requirements based on the nature of the application and relevant mandates.

b. Deployment Model

If a particular deployment model (Private, Public, Community, or Hybrid) is desired, Ordering Activities are responsible for identifying the desired model(s). Alternately, Ordering Activities could identify requirements and assess Contractor responses to determine the most appropriate deployment model(s).

c. Delivery Schedule

The Ordering Activity shall specify the delivery schedule as part of the initial requirement. The Delivery Schedule options are found in Information for Ordering Activities Applicable to All Special Item Numbers.

d. Interoperability

Ordering Activities are responsible for identifying interoperability requirements. Ordering Activities should clearly delineate requirements for API implementation and standards conformance.

e. Performance of Cloud Computing Services

The Ordering Activity should clearly indicate any custom minimum service levels, performance and scale requirements as part of the initial requirement.

f. Reporting

The Ordering Activity should clearly indicate any cost, performance or availability reporting as part of the initial requirement.

g. Privacy

The Ordering Activity should specify the privacy characteristics of their service and engage with the Contractor to determine if the cloud service is capable of meeting Ordering Activity requirements. For example, a requirement could be requiring assurance that the service is capable of safeguarding Personally Identifiable Information (PII), in accordance with NIST SP 800‐1224 and OMB memos M‐06‐165 and M‐3 MEMORANDUM FOR CHIEF INFORMATION OFFICERS: Security Authorization of Information Systems in Cloud Computing Environments.

December 8, 2011. 4 NIST SP 800‐122, “Guide to Protecting the Confidentiality of Personally Identifiable Information (PII)” 5 OMB memo M‐06‐16: Protection of Sensitive Agency Information http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/memoranda/fy2006/m06‐16.pdf

An Ordering Activity will determine what data elements constitute PII according to OMB Policy, NIST Guidance and Ordering Activity policy.

h. Accessibility

The Ordering Activity should specify the accessibility characteristics of their service and engage with the Contractor to determine the cloud service is capable of meeting Ordering Activity requirements. For example, a requirement could require assurance that the service is capable of providing accessibility based on Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. 794d).

i. Geographic Requirements

Ordering activities are responsible for specifying any geographic requirements and engaging with the Contractor to determine that the cloud services offered have the capabilities to meet geographic requirements for all anticipated task orders. Common geographic concerns could include whether service data, processes and related artifacts can be confined on request to the United States and its territories, or the continental United States (CONUS).

j. Data Ownership and Retrieval and Intellectual Property www.ctisinc.com | Tel: (301) 948-3033 | Fax: (301) 948-2242 Page 15 of 61

Intellectual property rights are not typically transferred in a cloud model. In general, CSPs retain ownership of the Intellectual Property (IP) underlying their services and the customer retains ownership of its intellectual property.

The CSP gives the customer a license to use the cloud services for the duration of the contract without transferring rights. The government retains ownership of the IP and data they bring to the customized use of the service as spelled out in the FAR and related materials.

General considerations of data ownership and retrieval are covered under the terms of GSA MAS and the FAR and other laws, ordinances, and regulations (Federal, State, City, or otherwise). Because of considerations arising from cloud shared responsibility models, ordering activities should engage with the Contractor to develop more cloud‐ specific understandings of the boundaries between data owned by the government and that owned by the cloud service provider, and the specific terms of data retrieval.

In all cases, the Ordering Activity should enter into an agreement with a clear and enforceable understanding of the boundaries between government and cloud service provider data, and the form, format and mode of delivery for each kind of data belonging to the government.

The Ordering Activity should expect that the Contractor shall transfer data to the government at the government's request at any time, and in all cases when the service or order is terminated for any reason, by means, in formats and within a scope clearly understood at the initiation of the service. Example cases that might require clarification include status and mode of delivery for:

• Configuration information created by the government and affecting the government’s use of the cloud provider’s service.

• Virtual machine configurations created by the government but operating on the cloud provider’s service.

6 OMB Memo M‐07‐16: Safeguarding Against and Responding to the Breach of Personally Identifiable Information http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/memoranda/fy2007/m07‐ 16.pdf

• Profile, configuration and other metadata used to configure SaaS application services or PaaS platform services.

The key is to determine in advance the ownership of classes of data and the means by which Government owned data can be returned to the Government.

k. Service Location Distribution

The Ordering Activity should determine requirements for continuity of operations and performance and engage with the Contractor to ensure that cloud services have adequate service location distribution to meet anticipated requirements. Typical concerns include ensuring that: • Physical locations underlying the cloud are numerous enough to provide continuity of operations and geographically separate enough to avoid an anticipated single point of failure within the scope of anticipated emergency events. • Service endpoints for the cloud are able to meet anticipated performance requirements in terms of geographic proximity to service requestors.

Note that cloud providers may address concerns in the form of minimum distance between service locations, general regions where service locations are available, etc.

l. Related Professional Services

Ordering activities should engage with Contractors to discuss the availability of limited assistance with initial setup, training and access to the services that may be available through this SIN.

Any additional substantial and ongoing professional services related to the offering such as integration, migration, and other cloud professional services are out of scope for this SIN. Ordering activities should consult the appropriate GSA professional services schedule.

5. GUIDANCE FOR CONTRACTORS

Contractor-specific definitions of cloud computing characteristics and models or significant variances from the NIST essential characteristics or models are discouraged and will not be considered in the scope of this SIN or accepted in response to Factors for Evaluation. The only applicable cloud characteristics, service model/subcategories and deployment models for this SIN will be drawn from the NIST 800-145 special publication. Services qualifying for www.ctisinc.com | Tel: (301) 948-3033 | Fax: (301) 948-2242 Page 16 of 61 listing as cloud computing services (i.e. IaaS, etc.) under this SIN must substantially satisfy the essential characteristics of cloud computing as documented in the NIST Definition of Cloud Computing SP 800-1457.

Contractors must select deployment models corresponding to each way the service can be deployed. Multiple deployment model designations for a single cloud service are permitted but at least one deployment model must be selected.
