Exhibit 7 -Information Security and Privacy Requirements.pdf

This exhibit outlines information security and privacy requirements for the HackNotice software renewal contract in California. The document establishes mandatory security standards and compliance frameworks that the software solution must meet, including requirements for data protection, access controls, encryption protocols, and system monitoring. The vendor must demonstrate adherence to industry-standard security practices and regulatory compliance measures applicable to state and local government operations. These requirements apply throughout the contract term and any renewal periods, ensuring continuous protection of sensitive information and systems.

The exhibit specifies technical and administrative security controls that vendors must implement and maintain, including vulnerability management, incident response procedures, audit logging, and regular security assessments. The vendor bears responsibility for demonstrating compliance through documentation, certifications, and third-party assessments as required by the state. These security and privacy provisions are non-negotiable terms of the contract and failure to maintain required standards may constitute grounds for contract termination or remediation action.
