NNG15SC27B/31310020F0031 C - Contract Clauses BRIEF PROJECT TITLE AND WORK DESCRIPTION (a) The title of this project is: Veracode Static Application Security Testing Subscription (b) Summary work description: The NRC requires subscription for the Veracode SAST (Static Application Security Testing) - STATIC-APP-G-R, and the Veracode Greenlight - GL-DEV-G.

Veracode SAST is a cloud-based platform that provides the NRC with the capability to review, assess, and verify the state of application development security before the software is deployed in the production environment. Veracode Greenlight is the SAST service that will be integrated into the development environment (IDE) for assessing the developed code in the early stage of the development.

See requirements in column 20 of the SF1449.

BRAND NAME JUSTIFICATION The Veracode software has the unique capability to:

1. The Veracode Platform offers a holistic, scalable way to manage security risk across the entire application portfolio. Veracode supports all the program languages that is used by the NRC developers.
2. Veracode is the only solution that meets NRCs requirement to provide visibility into application status across all testing types, including Static and Dynamic application security testing, and software composition analysis. Only Veracode can scan an entire application, including binary of a third-party libraries for security vulnerabilities.
3. The NRC developers have been using Veracode for over 5 years for analyzing the code security. Moving to a new testing solution would negatively impact NRCs ability to assess the weakness, identify the exact location of the vulnerability, and take the appropriate measure to correct the findings. Undetected weaknesses in applications increase the cybersecurity risk for the agency.
4. The Veracode reports provide step-by-step mitigation strategies for vulnerabilities identified in the application. The NRCs Change Control Board (CCB) relies on the report and comprehensive Veracode analysis for all new applications. Moving to a new solution would require a new type of assessment, a new type of report analysis, and will require more time for each evaluation. This would negatively impact the CCBs ability evaluate the cybersecurity risk for the NRC.
5. The Greenlight component is a unique Veracode static application security testing service to be used by the NRCs developers to identify vulnerabilities, before the code is complied. As discussed in 1b above, the Greenlight tool supports .NET, C++, Java, iOS, and Android programing framework. As part of the OCIO/Security Operation Branch (SOB) role and responsibilities for cybersecurity at NRC, the SOB will manage the developers access to the Veracode SAST. This feature is not available by other vendors.

CONSIDERATION AND OBLIGATION-FIRM-FIXED-PRICE The total amount of the Firm-Fixed-Price portion of this contract is , and this amount is fully-funded.

OPTION FOR ACQUISITION OF EVALUATED OPTIONAL FEATURES NOT PROCURED AT TIME OF AWARD OF CONTRACT (IT REQUIREMENTS)

The Government may exercise the option to acquire the evaluated optional features stated elsewhere in this contract at unit prices specified therein. The Contracting Officer may exercise this option by written notice to the Contractor at any time prior to the expiration of the contract.

Delivery of the evaluated optional features added by exercise of the option shall be in accordance with the delivery schedule set forth elsewhere in this contract.

ANNUAL AND FINAL CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS Annual and final evaluations of contractor performance under this contract will be prepared in accordance with FAR Subpart 42.15, "Contractor Performance Information," normally at or near the time the contractor is notified of the NRC's intent to exercise the contract option. If the multi-year contract does not have option years, then an annual evaluation will be prepared N/A. Final evaluations of contractor performance will be prepared at the expiration of the contract during the contract closeout process.

The Contracting Officer will transmit the NRC Contracting Officers Representatives (COR) annual and final contractor performance evaluations to the contractor's Project Manager, unless otherwise instructed by the contractor. The contractor will be permitted thirty days to review the document and submit comments, rebutting statements, or additional information.

Where a contractor concurs with, or takes no exception to an annual performance evaluation, the Contracting Officer will consider such evaluation final and releasable for source selection purposes. Disagreements between the parties regarding a performance evaluation will be referred to an individual one level above the Contracting Officer, whose decision will be final.

The Contracting Officer will send a copy of the completed evaluation report, marked "Source Selection Information, to the contractor's Project Manager for their records as soon as practicable after it has been finalized. The completed evaluation report also will be used as a tool to improve communications between the NRC and the contractor and to improve contract performance.

The completed annual performance evaluation will be used to support future award decisions in accordance with FAR 42.1502 and 42.1503. During the period the information is being used to Page 8

NNG15SC27B/31310020F0031 provide source selection information, the completed annual performance evaluation will be released to only two parties - the Federal government personnel performing the source selection evaluation and the contractor under evaluation if the contractor does not have a copy of the report already.

USE OF AUTOMATED CLEARING HOUSE (ACH) ELECTRONIC PAYMENT/REMITTANCE ADDRESS The Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 requires that all Federal payments except IRS tax refunds be made by Electronic Funds Transfer. lt is the policy of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to pay government vendors by the Automated Clearing House (ACH) electronic funds transfer payment system. Item 15C of the Standard Form 33 may be disregarded.

AWARD NOTIFICATION AND COMMITMENT OF PUBLIC FUNDS (a) All offerors will receive preaward and postaward notices in accordance with FAR 15.503.

(b) It is also brought to your attention that the contracting officer is the only individual who can legally obligate funds or commit the NRC to the expenditure of public funds in connection with this procurement. This means that unless provided in a contract document or specifically authorized by the contracting officer, NRC technical personnel may not issue contract modifications, give formal contractual commitments, or otherwise bind, commit, or obligate the NRC contractually. Informal unauthorized commitments, which do not obligate the NRC and do not entitle the contractor to payment, may include:

(1) Encouraging a potential contractor to incur costs prior to receiving a contract; (2) Requesting or requiring a contractor to make changes under a contract without formal contract modifications; (3) Encouraging a contractor to incur costs under a cost-reimbursable contract in excess of those costs contractually allowable; and (4) Committing the Government to a course of action with regard to a potential contract, contract change, claim, or dispute.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 508 OF THE REHABILITATION ACT OF 1973, AS AMENDED (SEP 2013)

In 1998, Congress amended the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. §794d) as amended by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (P.L. 105 - 220), August 7, 1998 to require Federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology (EIT) accessible to people with disabilities. Inaccessible technology interferes with an ability to obtain and use information quickly and easily. Section 508 was enacted to eliminate barriers in information technology, open new opportunities for people with disabilities, and encourage development of technologies that will help achieve these goals. The law applies to all Federal agencies when they develop, procure, maintain, or use electronic and information technology. Under Section 508 (29 U.S.C.

§794d), agencies must give disabled employees and members of the public access to information that is comparable to access available to others.

Page 9

NNG15SC27B/31310020F0031 Specifically, Section 508 of that Act requires that when Federal agencies develop, procure, maintain, or use EIT, Federal employees with disabilities have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to the access and use by Federal employees who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency. (36 C.F.R. §1194 implements Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and is viewable at: http://www.access-board.gov/sec508/standards.htm)

Exceptions.

[ ] The EIT is for a national security system.

[ ] The EIT is acquired by a contractor incidental to a contract.

[ ] The EIT is located in spaces frequented only by service personnel for maintenance, repair or occasional monitoring of equipment.

[ ] Compliance with the applicable 36 C.F.R. Part 1194 provisions would impose an undue burden on the agency.

Applicable Standards.

The following accessibility standards from 36 C.F.R. Part 1194 have been determined to be applicable to this contract/order. See www.section508.gov for more information:
