About this file
This is an Operational Security Non-Disclosure Agreement appendix for CENTCOM contract H9821026QA001 that establishes mandatory security requirements for contractor personnel during contract performance.
The agreement prohibits introduction of personal electronic devices (laptops, tablets, cellular phones, cameras, recording devices) into government spaces without approval from the Installation Security Officer or government representative. Photography and recording are strictly forbidden except for official use with proper permits. Contractor personnel are prohibited from discussing government operations in public or over unencrypted communications, and may only transmit official business or controlled unclassified information as directed in the Performance Work Statement. Contractors must not post sensitive information, images, or data to company websites, publications, social media, or other public forums that could reveal government operations, personnel, equipment, tactics, procedures, work schedules, vehicle or weapons upgrades, deployment frequency changes, aircraft movements, or specialized equipment orders. Unauthorized disclosure of National Security information is subject to criminal penalties under 18 USC § 793. Government-issued badges and identification must be removed and concealed when off-station, never left in vehicles, and may not be duplicated or loaned. Lost or stolen badges must be immediately reported to the Installation Security Office. Additional requirements include practicing Operational Security (OPSEC) countermeasures to protect sensitive unclassified information, marking internal schedules and deliverables as business sensitive, and either destroying or returning all government information upon contract termination. Non-disclosure obligations remain in effect indefinitely after contract completion. All contractor personnel must sign the agreement acknowledging understanding and compliance.

CENTCOM Contractor Operational Security Non-Disclosure Agreement
During the course of this contract, in addition to those restrictions, instructions and guidelines delineated in the contract Performance Work Statement (PWS) and/or other references provided, the contractor will adhere to the following minimum requirements in support of the CENTCOM OPSEC Program:
a. Introduction of personnel electronic devices into government spaces, laptops, tablet PCs, cellular phones, two-way radios, cameras, recording devices, and data recording/storage devices is STRICTLY controlled and forbidden in most cases. Company issued equipment required for the performance of work must be approved by the installation and/or government Security Officer. Photography and recording is not allowed except for official use and by permit only. (Unless otherwise stipulated in the contract, contact the Installation Security Officer for approval.) Photographs will be reviewed by Security to ensure sensitive and/or classified information is not revealed.
b. Contractor personnel shall not discuss government operations in public or over unprotected or unencrypted communications. Official Business, controlled unclassified or sensitive information may only be transmitted as directed in the PWS.
c. The Contractor shall not post to company websites, publications, newsletters or other media any images, data or information that reveal sensitive government operations, personnel, equipment, and/or classified or controlled unclassified information, refer to paragraph (d) below. When in doubt, company press releases related to this contract should be coordinated through the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) or Technical Point of Contact, as applicable.
d. Because observation of events, operations, physical changes, etc. may reveal National Security information, specific restrictions are needed to preclude unintentional release of this information to unauthorized parties. (Unauthorized disclosure and transfer of National Security Information is punishable under 18 USC § 793.) Therefore, contractor personnel shall not disclose to unauthorized third parties, post to unofficial sites (including Social Networking sites) any images, data or information, or observed events that reveal sensitive government operations, personnel, or equipment. This includes, but is not limited to tactics, techniques and procedures, work schedules, upgrades or additions to vehicles, weapons, or equipment; increases, change, or decreases in work/deployment frequency of government personnel, vehicles, or aircraft movements; specialized equipment orders, deliveries, shipments, etc. Unauthorized disclosures or attempts to solicit this type of information by unauthorized third parties or others not affiliated with this contract shall be reported to the installation Security Office, contract point of contact, and your company Facility Security Officer and/or the Defense Security Service. Non-Disclosure requirements remain in effect during the duration of this contract and indefinitely thereafter.
e. Government issued badges, identification shall be removed and/or concealed from plain sight when off station and shall not be left in vehicles or unprotected. Badges and passes may not be duplicated, copied, or loaned to others. Lost or stolen identification badges, vehicle passes etc. will be immediately reported to the installation Security Office.

f. Practice OPSEC and implement countermeasures to protect sensitive unclassified information and execution of military operations performed or supported by the contractor in support of the mission.

Specific Government-provided information will be protected in accordance with guidance in applicable paragraphs of the PWS.
h. All government information must be destroyed at contract termination or returned to the government at the government’s discretion.
I understand and will comply with this agreement.
