SECURITY REQUIREMENTS - FACILITY SECURITY LEVEL I
THESE PARAGRAPHS CONTAIN SECURITY REQUIREMENTS, AND, UNLESS
INDICATED OTHERWISE, ARE TO BE PRICED AS PART OF THE BUILDING
SHELL. WHERE THEY ARE IN CONFLICT WITH ANY OTHER REQUIREMENTS ON
THIS LEASE, THE STRICTEST SHALL APPLY.
DEFINITIONS:
CRITICAL AREAS - The areas that house systems that if damaged or compromised could have significant adverse consequences for the facility, operation of the facility, or mission of the agency or its occupants and visitors. These areas may also be referred to as “limited access areas,” “restricted areas,” or “exclusionary zones.” Critical areas do not necessarily have to be within Government-controlled space (e.g., generators, air handlers, electrical feeds which could be located outside Government-controlled space).
SENSITIVE AREAS – Sensitive areas include vaults, Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs), evidence rooms, war rooms, and sensitive documents areas. Sensitive areas are primarily housed within Government-controlled space.
FACILITY ENTRANCES, LOBBY, COMMON AREAS, NON-PUBLIC,
AND UTILITY AREAS.
FACILITY ENTRANCES AND LOBBY

IDENTITY VERIFICATION
The Government reserves the right to verify the identity of persons requesting access to the Space prior to allowing entry.
FORMAL KEY CONTROL PROGRAM
The Government reserves the right to implement a formal key control program. The lessor shall have a means of allowing the electronic disabling of lost or stolen access media, if electronic media is used.
SITES
SIGNAGE
POSTING OF SIGNAGE IDENTIFYING THE SPACE AS GOVERNMENTAL
Lessor_______ Gov’t _______ Security Requirements (Level I) (REV 6/22/18) Page 3
The Lessor shall not post sign(s) or otherwise identify the facility and parking areas as a Government, or specific Government tenant, occupied facility, including during construction, without written Government approval.
POSTING OF REGULATORY SIGNAGE
The Government may post or request the Lessor to post regulatory, statutory and site specific signage at the direction of the Government.
LANDSCAPING
LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS
Lessor shall maintain landscaping (trees, bushes, hedges, land contour, etc,) around the facility.
Landscaping shall be neatly trimmed in order to minimize the opportunity for concealment of individuals and packages/containers. Landscaping shall not obstruct the views of security guards and CCTV cameras, or interfere with lighting or IDS equipment.
CRIME PREVENTION THROUGH ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN
The Lessor shall separate from public access, restricted areas as designated by the Government, through the application of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles by using trees, hedges, berms, or a combination of these or similar features, and by fences, walls, gates and other barriers, where feasible and acceptable to the Government.
SECURITY SYSTEMS
No requirements
STRUCTURE
Lessor shall provide written emergency shutdown procedures for air handlers.
OPERATIONS AND ADMINISTRATION
LESSOR TO WORK WITH FACILITY SECURITY COMMITTEE (FSC)
The Lessor shall cooperate and work with the buildings Facility Security Committee (FSC) throughout the term of the lease.
ACCESS TO BUILDING INFORMATION
Lessor_______ Gov’t _______ Security Requirements (Level I) (REV 6/22/18) Page 4
Building Information—including mechanical, electrical, vertical transport, fire and life safety, security system plans and schematics, computer automation systems, and emergency operations procedures—shall be strictly controlled. Such information shall be released to authorized personnel only, approved by the Government, by the development of an access list and controlled copy numbering. The Contracting Officer may direct that the names and locations of Government tenants not be disclosed in any publicly accessed document or record.
If that is the case, the Government may request that such information not be posted in the building directory.
Lessor shall have emergency plans and associated documents readily available in the event of an emergency.
CYBERSECURITY (SHELL)
A. Lessors are prohibited from connecting any portion of their building and access control systems (BACS) to any federally-owned or operated IT network. BACS include systems providing fire and life safety control, physical access control, building power and energy control, electronic surveillance, and automated HVAC, elevator, or building monitoring and control services (including IP addressable devices, application servers, or network switches).
B. In the event of a cybersecurity incident related to BACS, the Lessor shall initially assess the cyber incident, identify the impacts and risks to the Building and its occupants, and follow their organization’s cyber and IT procedures and protocols related to containing and handling a cybersecurity incident. In addition, the Lessor shall immediately inform the Lease Contracting Officer’s (LCO’s) designated representative, i.e., the Lease Administration Manager (LAM), about cybersecurity incidents that impact a federal tenant’s safety, security, or proper functioning.
C. Lessors are encouraged to put into place the following cyber protection measures in order to safeguard facilities and occupants:
1. Engineer and install BACS to comply with the Department of Homeland Security
Industrial Control Systems Computer Emergency Response Team (DHS ICS-CERT) cyber security guidance and recommendations (https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/Recommended-Practices).
2. Refer to the National Institute of Standards and Technology Cyber Security Framework (NIST-CSF) (https://www.nist.gov/cyberframework) and cybersecurity guidance in the DHS Commercial Facilities Sector-Specific Plan (https://www.dhs.gov/publication/nipp-ssp-commercial-facilities-2015) for best practices to manage cyber risks.
3. Encourage vendors of BACS to secure these devices and software through the following:
a. Develop and Institute a proper Configuration Management Plan for the BACS devices and applications, so that the system can be supported.
b. Safeguard sensitive data and/or login credentials through the use of strong encryption on devices and applications. This means using NIST- approved encryption algorithms, secure protocols (i.e., Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.1, https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/Recommended-Practices https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/Recommended-Practices https://www.nist.gov/cyberframework https://www.dhs.gov/publication/nipp-ssp-commercial-facilities-2015
Lessor_______ Gov’t _______ Security Requirements (Level I) (REV 6/22/18) Page 5
TLS 1.2, TLS 1.3) and Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 validated modules.
c. Disable unnecessary services in order to protect the system from unnecessary access and a potential exposure point by a malicious attacker. Examples include File Transfer Protocol-FTP (a protocol used for transferring files to a remote location) and Telnet (allowing a user to issue commands remotely). Additionally, use of protocols that transmit data in the clear (such as default ZigBee) should be avoided, in favor of protocols that are encrypted.
d. Close unnecessary open ports to secure against unprivileged access.
e. Monitor and free web applications and supporting servers of common vulnerabilities in web applications, such as those identified by the (Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top 10 Project (https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_Top_Ten_Project).
f. Enforce Least Privilege, where proper permissions are enforced on a device or application so that a malicious attacker cannot gain access to all data. Enforcing Least Privilege will only allow users to access data they are allowed to see.
Additional information can be found at https://www.beyondtrust.com/blog/what-is-least-privilege/
g. Protect against Insufficient User Access Auditing, where device or application does not have a mechanism to log/track activity by user. Enforce changing of factory default Username and Password to prevent unauthorized entry into the BACS system.
h. Use updated antivirus software subscription at all times. Kaspersky-branded products or services, prohibited from use by the Federal Government, are not to be utilized.
i. Conduct antivirus and spyware scans on a regular basis. Patching for workstations and server Operating System (OS), as well as vulnerability patching should follow standard industry best practices for software development life cycle
(SDLC).
j. Discontinue the use of end of life (EOL) systems and use only applications/systems that are supported by the manufacturer.
k. Operating Systems must be supported by the vendor for security updates (e.g., do not use Windows Server 2003).
l. Proposed standard installation, operation, maintenance, updates, and/or patching of software shall not alter the configuration settings from the approved United States Government Configuration Baseline (USGCB) or tenant agency guidance (if applicable).
m. Disallow the use of commercially-provided circuits to manage building systems and install building systems on a protected network, safeguarded by the enterprise firewalls in place. Workstations or servers running building monitor and control systems are not connected and visible on the public internet.
n. Systems should have proper system configuration hardening and align with Center for Internet Security (CIS) benchmarks or other industry recognized benchmarks. Additional information can be found at https://www.cisecurity.org/cis-benchmarks/.
