An electronic spillage is defined as classified data placed on an information system (IS), media or hardcopy document possessing insufficient security controls to protect the data at the required classification level, thus posing a risk to national security (e.g., sensitive compartmented information (SCI) onto collateral, Secret onto Unclassified, etc). The Contractor’s performance as it relates to ES will be evaluated by the Government. ES reflects on the overall security posture of NSWCDD and a lack of attention to detail with regard to the handling of classified information of IS security discipline and will be reflected in the Contractor's performance rating. In the event that a Contractor is determined to be responsible for an ES, all direct and indirect costs incurred by the Government for ES remediation will be charged to the Contractor.

C.8.6 NSWCDD Security will continue to be responsible for the corrective action plan in accordance with the security guidance reflected on the DOD Contract Security Classification Specification – DD Form 254. NSWCDD Security will identify the Contractor facility and contract number associated with all electronic spillages during the investigation that involve Contractor support. NSWCDD Security will notify the Contracts Division with the Contractor facility name and contract number, incident specifics and associated costs for clean up. The Contracting Officer will be responsible to work with the Contractor Facility to capture the costs incurred during the spillage clean up. The Contractor is also responsible for taking Information Security Awareness training annually, via their Facility Security Officer (FSO), as part of the mandatory training requirements. If a spillage occurs additional training will be required to prevent recurrence.
