1 Information Security - Definitions
0 The following definitions are used in those clauses that cross reference this clause. Compromise means disclosure
of information to unauthorized persons, or a violation of the security policy of a system in which unauthorized
intentional or unintentional disclosure, modification, destruction, or loss of an object may have occurred. Without
limitation, the term “compromise” includes copying the data through covert network channels, or copying the data to
unauthorized media, or disclosure of information in violation of any obligation imposed by this contract. Data means
a subset of information in an electronic format that allows it to be retrieved or transmitted. Government information
means information (i) provided to Contractor by, or generated by Contractor for, the using governmental unit, or (ii)
acquired or accessed by Contractor as a result of performing the Work. Without limiting the foregoing, government
information includes any information that Contractor acquires or accesses by software or web-based services,
which includes, without limitation, any metadata or location data. Government information excludes unrestricted
information. Information means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, statistics, or
opinions, in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audiovisual.

Using Governmental Unit or a third party pursuant to or as a result of this contract. Third party means any person or
entity other than the Using Governmental Unit, the Contractor, or any subcontractors at any tier. Unrestricted
