About this file

This exhibit document outlines the Information Security and Privacy Requirements that contractors must comply with when engaged by Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) under RFP HHS0017023 for Recovery Audit Contractor Services. Contractors are required to implement a high security baseline with appropriate controls to protect confidential, agency sensitive, and public information types. The standards and regulations that apply include Texas HHS Information Security Controls, the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP), and applicable state and federal requirements established by the Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) Security Control Standards Catalog. Compliance with these requirements is mandatory to maintain a business relationship with Texas HHS, and contractors must fulfill ongoing HHS monitoring requirements for continuing compliance as outlined in IS-RAMP.

The document specifies 328 individual Information Security and Privacy control requirements that contractors must implement across 14 categories, including Access Control, Awareness and Training, Audit and Accountability, Assessment/Authorization/Monitoring, Configuration Management, Contingency Planning, Identification and Authentication, Incident Response, Maintenance, Media Protection, Physical and Environmental Protection, Planning, Personnel Security, Risk Assessment, System and Services Acquisition, System and Communications Protection, System and Information Integrity, and Supply Chain Risk Management. Contractors must implement the most restrictive requirements when multiple applicable standards mandate the same control, and must implement any additional controls added or modified in subsequent updates to applicable standards and regulations. There is an exception allowing documented agreements whereby Texas HHS may serve as the provider for specified controls.
