652.239-800 - Cybersecurity Supply Chain Risk Management Requirements (AUG 2026)
(a) Definitions. As used in this clause:
Covered article - The term "covered article" includes-
(1) "Information and Communications Technology" which is an industry term for information technology that is involved in integrating telecommunications (e.g., telephone lines and wireless signals) and computers to enable users to access, store, manipulate, transmit, and receive digital information. This includes software, software as a service, digital and data services, and hardware components that support information creation, storage, transfer, and management, like computers and smartphones.
(2) “Operational Technology” (OT) is defined as programmable systems or devices that interact with the physical environment (or manage devices that interact with the physical environment). These systems/devices detect or cause a direct change through the monitoring and/or control of devices, processes, and events.
Examples of OT include industrial control systems, building management systems, fire control systems, physical access control mechanisms, and internet of things devices.
(3) “Critical software” refers to any software, firmware, or cloud-based application—including its direct dependencies—that performs
Document Number: 19AQMM26F1637 Contract Number: GS35F162DA Page 6 of 20 functions vital to the organization’s security posture and operational integrity. This includes any tool that manages elevated privileges, possesses direct access to networking and computing resources, or controls access to data and operational technology. Furthermore, any software that performs essential trust functions or operates across security boundaries is classified as critical, as its compromise would grant an attacker significant control or visibility into the broader environment.
(4) "Telecommunications Equipment", which means equipment, other than customer premises equipment, used by a carrier to provide telecommunications services, and includes software integral to such equipment (including upgrades).
(5) "Telecommunications Service", which means the offering of telecommunications for a fee directly to the public, or to such classes of users as to be effectively available directly to the public, regardless of the facilities used.
(6) Cybersecurity Supply Chain Risk: The term cybersecurity supply chain risk means the risk that a person may sabotage, maliciously introduce unwanted function, extract data, or otherwise manipulate the design, integrity, manufacturing, production, distribution, installation, operation, maintenance, disposition, or retirement of covered articles to surveil, deny, disrupt, or otherwise manipulate the function, use, or operation of the covered articles or information stored or transmitted on the covered articles.
(7) Incident: The term incident means per the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014, “an occurrence that (A) actually or imminently jeopardizes, without lawful authority, the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of information or an information system; or (B) constitutes a violation or imminent threat of violation of law, security policies, security procedures, or acceptable use policies.”
(8) Vulnerability: The term vulnerability which means any weakness in an information system, system security procedures, internal controls, or implementation that could be exploited or triggered by a threat source.
(b) Contractor Cybersecurity Supply Chain Risk Management Responsibilities.
The Contractor must regularly identify, assess, monitor, and mitigate cybersecurity supply chain risks when providing covered articles or services to the Government. The Contractor shall maintain artifacts (i.e., any byproduct of hardware or software development that helps describe the architecture, design, and function of that hardware or software) that document its compliance with this paragraph and shall provide these artifacts to the Government within 48 hours of request, which may be redacted to remove sensitive proprietary information.
(c) Supporting Government Cybersecurity Supply Chain Risk Assessments. No more than an estimated once per year, the Contractor must provide any
Document Number: 19AQMM26F1637 Contract Number: GS35F162DA Page 7 of 20 requested information related to its supply chain within 10 business days except information that is protected by a non-disclosure agreement with its customers (e.g., another federal agency).
(d) Novation Agreement Notice. FAR 42.1203 requires Government approval of novation agreements. For proposed novation agreements for this contract, the Contractor shall provide any information requested by the Government regarding the proposed successor’s identity and information regarding its supply chain.
(e) Notification procedures for cybersecurity supply chain incidents. When an incident occurs, the Contractor must contact the CO or their designee within 72 hours of the incident.
(f) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall insert the substance of this clause in all subcontracts and other contractual instruments in support of this contract.
(g) Attestation following Major Version Change. For critical software, as defined by NIST Guidance, provided under the contract that required an approved Secure Software Development Attestation Form, the responses on this form apply to the software’s major version changes (e.g., using a semantic versioning schema of Major.Minor.Patch, the software version number goes from 2.5 to 3.0) unless the Contractor otherwise notifies the Contacting Officer that the form is no longer valid. This notification to the Contracting Officer must be submitted within 15 days of the major version change and must include a new completed and signed Secure Software Development Attestation Form.
