The terms and conditions of the Purchase Order/task order resulting from this Request for Quote (RFQ) shall take precedence over the terms and conditions set forth in the DMS state term contract, except where the terms and conditions of the state term contract are required by law. Funding for the Purchase Order/task order is contingent upon annual state legislative appropriation. Although the document that will result from this RFQ will be a Purchase Order issued under the relevant DMS state term contract(s), the term contract is used in the RFQ as a matter of convenience to denote that document. The goals of this engagement are to: 1. Satisfy the Meaningful Use Core Objective to Protect Electronic Health Information. 2. Guide the Department of Children and Families Risk Management Program to more effectively prevent, detect, contain, and correct security violations. 3. Meet Security Rule testing requirements. 4.

Scope of Work The Department of Children and Families is in the process of developing an internal Risk Management Program and seeks an objective third-party to aid in the RA process. This process should include the following phases: 1. Develop a project plan to define the overall project timeline, including key project milestones and deliverables. 2. Conduct an accurate and thorough assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected health information. 3. Validate that vulnerabilities and risks identified have been sufficiently mitigated. The identification of vulnerabilities should use multiple approaches including: A review of the following control categories: o Business Associate Oversight o Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery o Data Security (ephi and meaningful use reporting) o Information Security Program o Network Analysis o Personnel Security o Physical Security o Security Event and Incident Management o Systems Analysis Internal technical vulnerability assessment External penetration testing Social Engineering The vendor shall use both technical and non-technical methods to: 1. Identify missing controls by performing a gap analysis between implemented safeguards to those required by the Security rule. 2. Identify non-functioning controls by comparing documented policies and procedures to actual implemented controls. 3. Identify internal technical vulnerabilities by testing implemented security domains, device configurations, access controls, system hardening procedures, vulnerability management programs, etc. 4. Identify external vulnerabilities by enumerating all Internet-accessible services and validating which software, configuration, and password vulnerabilities are exploitable. 5. Identify areas to improve employee security awareness and training by focused social engineering testing. 4/17/13 Page 5 of 12
6. Validate all identified vulnerabilities have been addressed in a timely manner. 7. If sampling is part of your methodology, define when and how sampling will be used.
