About this file

This document is a Contractor Agreement to Comply with BIT Information Technology Security Policy issued by the South Dakota Bureau of Information and Telecommunications (BIT). The form requires contractors working with the State of South Dakota to acknowledge and agree to specific information technology security requirements when accessing non-public state technology infrastructure or information. Key obligations include protecting technology and information assets from unauthorized activities, following state and federal data confidentiality regulations, and reporting any policy violations to the state contact and BIT Help Desk.

The agreement outlines critical provisions such as recognizing technology infrastructure access as a privilege that can be changed or revoked at BIT management's discretion, and understanding that access automatically terminates upon contract completion unless otherwise agreed in writing. Contractors must ensure their employees comply with the attached security policy, with potential consequences for violations including privilege revocation and possible consideration of a contract breach. The document is part of a broader procurement process that requires strict adherence to information security protocols, demonstrating the state's commitment to protecting sensitive technological and informational assets.
