The consultant must maintain professional liability insurance with limits specified in the solicitation, commercial general liability coverage, automobile liability coverage, and workers' compensation insurance, with the Authority and City of Orlando named as additional insureds. The agreement includes mandatory compliance with Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) and Local Developing Business/Veteran Business Enterprise (LDB/VBE) participation requirements, with the consultant required to document good faith efforts to meet established goals or utilize certified firms as subconsultants. The consultant is responsible for all personnel qualifications, subconsultant management and approval by the Authority, ownership of all work product and intellectual property, maintenance of records for five years, and indemnification of the Authority for negligence or wrongful acts; the Authority reserves the right to terminate the agreement or individual Task Orders for convenience with thirty days' notice or for default with opportunity to cure.

8.5 Sensitive Security Information

The Consultant shall not, during the term of this Agreement and forever thereafter, knowingly divulge, furnish or make available any sensitive security information to any third person, firm or organization, without the Owner's knowledge and prior written consent, including requests for said information made in the course of judicial or legislative proceedings where such information has been properly subpoenaed, Consultant is further prohibited from releasing and reproducing security sensitive information within Consultant’s firm and distribution among Consultant’s Subconsultants without the Owner’s knowledge and prior written consent,

8.5.1 SSI: Sensitive Security Information – also noted as (SSI) – is information that, if publicly released, would be detrimental to transportation security, as defined by Federal regulation 49 C.F.R. part 1520. Although SSI is not classified information, there are specific procedures for recognizing, marking, protecting, safely sharing, and destroying SSI. Persons receiving SSI are considered “covered persons” under the SSI regulation in order to carry out responsibilities related to transportation security and are obligated to protect this information from unauthorized disclosure.

8.5.2 A. The following information indicates requirements for access to, control of, and/or distribution of Project Documents Marked as Sensitive Security Information or SSI.

1. You Must – Lock All SSI: Store SSI in a secure container such as a locked file cabinet or drawer (as defined by Federal regulation 49 C.F.R. part 1520.9 (a)(1)).

2. You Must – When No Longer Needed, Destroy SSI: Destruction of SSI must be complete to preclude recognition or reconstruction of the information (as defined by Federal regulation 49 C.F.R. part 1520.19).

3. You Must – Mark SSI: The regulation requires that even when only a small portion of a paper document contains SSI, every page of the document must be marked with the SSI header and footer shown at left (as defined by Federal regulation 49 C.F.R. part 1520.13). Alteration of the footer is not authorized.

B. Reasonable steps must be taken to safeguard SSI. While the regulation does not define reasonable steps, the TSA SSI Branch offers the following best practices as examples of reasonable steps:

1. Use an SSI cover sheet on all SSI materials.

2. Electronic presentations (e.g., PowerPoint) should be marked with the SSI header on all pages and the SSI footer on the first and last pages of the presentation.

3. Spreadsheets should be marked with the SSI header on every page and the SSI footer on every page or at the end of the document.

4. Video and audio should be marked with the SSI header and footer on the protective cover when able and the header and footer should be shown and/or read at the beginning and end of the program.

5. CDs/DVDs should be encrypted or password-protected and the header and footer should be affixed to the CD/DVD.

6. Portable drives including “flash” or “thumb” drives should not themselves be marked, but the drive itself should be encrypted or all SSI documents stored on it should be password protected.

7. When leaving your computer or desk you must lock all SSI and you should lock or turn off your computer.

8. Taking SSI home is not recommended. If necessary, get permission from a supervisor and lock all SSI at home.

9. Do not handle SSI on computers that have peer-to-peer software installed on them or on your home computer.

10. Transmit SSI via email only in a password protected attachment, not in the body of the email. Send the password without identifying information in a separate email or by phone.

11. Passwords for SSI documents should contain at least eight characters, have at least one uppercase and one lowercase letter, contain at least one number, one special character and not be a word in the dictionary.

12. Faxing of SSI should be done by first verifying the fax number and that the intended recipient will be available promptly to retrieve the SSI.

13. SSI should be mailed by U.S. First Class mail or other traceable delivery service using an opaque envelope or wrapping. The outside wrapping (i.e. box or envelope) should not be marked as SSI.

14. Interoffice mail should be sent using an unmarked, opaque, sealed envelope so that the SSI cannot be read through the envelope.

15. SSI stored in network folders should either require a password to open or the network should limit access to the folder to only those with a need to know.

16. Properly destroy SSI using a cross-cut shredder or by cutting manually into less than ½ inch squares.

17. Properly destroy electronic records using any method that will preclude recognition or reconstruction.

18. Maintain an up-to-date record of all SSI Documents and list of persons with access to SSI Documents.

C. When transmitting SSI, the SSI marking must be applied to the transmittal document (letter, memorandum, or fax). The transmittal document must contain, if applicable, a disclaimer noting that it is no longer SSI when it is detached from the SSI it is transmitting (transmittal e-mails do not need to contain this disclaimer), and a warning that if received by an unintended or different recipient, the sender must be notified immediately.

D. When discussing or transmitting SSI to another individual(s), DHS Covered Persons must ensure that the individual with whom the discussion is to be held or the information is to be transferred has a valid Need-to-know. In addition, DHS Covered Persons must ensure that precautions are taken to prevent unauthorized individuals from overhearing the conversation, observing the materials, or otherwise accessing the information.

E. SSI shall be mailed in a manner that offers reasonable protection of the sent materials and sealed in such a manner as to prevent inadvertent opening and show evidence of tampering.

F. SSI may be mailed by U.S. Postal Service First Class Mail or an authorized commercial delivery service such as DHL or Federal Express.

G. SSI may be entered into an inter-office mail system provided it is afforded sufficient protection to prevent unauthorized access, e.g., sealed envelope.
