About this file

This is a Contractor Security Acknowledgement Form issued by the State of South Dakota's Bureau of Information Technology (BIT) requiring contractors to comply with the state's Information Technology Security Policy. The form serves as a binding agreement between the State and contractors engaged to provide services, and must be signed by an authorized representative committing all current and future employees to adhere to the specified security requirements. Contractors are required to protect non-public state technology infrastructure and information assets from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, deletion, and usage while maintaining compliance with applicable state and federal confidentiality and data handling regulations. Signatories acknowledge that access to state technology infrastructure is a privilege that may be modified or revoked at BIT management's discretion, and that such access automatically terminates upon contract conclusion unless otherwise documented in writing.

The agreement establishes that any contractor employee found to have violated the IT security policy may face privilege revocation and potential breach of contract consequences as determined by the State. Contractors must promptly report all policy violations to their designated state contact and the BIT Help Desk at 605-773-4357. The form requires the individual signing to certify they possess authority to commit their entire organization and all employees to the terms outlined. The document references an attached State of South Dakota Information Technology Security Policy that contains detailed procedures and requirements contractors must follow. No specific pricing, set-aside provisions, or funding information is addressed in this form, as it functions solely as a security compliance acknowledgement document.
