Proposed Rules Overhaul Cybersecurity Requirements for … – JD Supra

The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Council has proposed two new cybersecurity rules that would impose significant obligations and risks for federal government contractors.TAKEAWAYS

On October 3, 2023, the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Council proposed two rules, Cyber Threat and Incident Reporting and Information Sharing and Standardizing Cybersecurity Requirements for Unclassified Federal Information Systems. The proposed rules partially implement Executive Order (EO) 14028, Improving the Nations Cybersecurity, which focuses on improving the nations cybersecurity and protecting against cyber threats by revamping incident reporting, information sharing for federal contractors and implementation of related cybersecurity policies. On November 1, 2023, the FAR Council extended the comment period for these proposed rules until February 2, 2024.

As explained below, these rules are significant because they impose extensive and onerous obligations on contractors and their supply chains. In addition, both proposed rules include a statement that compliance with their respective requirements is material to eligibility and payment under Government contracts. This language strongly suggests that the government will take the position that failure to comply with these requirements could result in liability under the False Claims Act.

FAR Case 2021-017, Cyber Threat and Incident Reporting and Information Sharing

FAR Case 2021-2017 provides a new FAR clause, FAR 52.239ZZ, Incident and Threat Reporting and Incident Response Requirements for Products or Services Containing Information and Communications Technology, which will impose the following significant obligations on contractors and subcontractors, among others:

Security Incident Reporting Harmonization. Under the new rule, contractors will be required to immediately and thoroughly investigate all indicators that a security incident may have occurred, and, within eight hours of discovery, report the incident using the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) incident reporting portal. Contractors are also required to update the submission every 72 hours thereafter until the Contractor, the agency, and/or any investigating agencies have completed all eradication or remediation activities. Notably, these requirements are in addition to other existing cyber incident reporting requirements, such as the 72-hour reporting requirement for incidents involving controlled unclassified information contained in DFARS 252.204-7012.

Access to Contractor Information and Information Systems. Following a security incident, contractors will be required to take certain steps to support the incident response. For example, contractors will have to provide the CISA, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the contracting agency full access to applicable contractor information and information systems, and to contractor personnel. Contractors will also be required to collect and preserve data and information related to the incident for at least 12 months in active storage, followed by six months in active or cold storage.

Software Bills of Materials (SBOM). For any computer software used in the performance of a contract, contractors will be required to develop and maintain a SBOM, which is defined as a formal record containing the details and supply chain relationships of various components used in building software. Contractors will be required to update the SBOM if the computer software is updated during contract performance. This requirement applies regardless of whether a security incident occurs.

FAR 52.239ZZ will be required in all contracts, including those for commercial items and those below the simplified acquisition threshold. Contractors will also be required to flow this clause down to all subcontracts throughout the supply chain that involve information and communications technology (ICT). ICT is broadly defined as information technology and other equipment, systems, technologies or processes, for which the principal function is the creation, manipulation, storage, display, receipt or transmission of electronic data and information, as well as any associated content.

FAR 2021-019, Standardizing Cybersecurity Requirements for Unclassified Federal Information Systems

The second proposed rule aims to standardize cybersecurity policies, procedures and contractual requirements for contractors that develop, implement, operate or maintain an unclassified federal information system (FIS). An FIS is defined as an information system used or operated by an agency, contractor of an agency or another organization, on behalf of an agency.

This proposed rule creates two new FAR clausesone that applies to non-cloud FIS, FAR 52.239-YY, Federal Information Systems Using Non-Cloud Computing Services, and one that applies to cloud-based FIS, FAR 52.239-XX, Federal Information Systems Using Cloud Computing Serviceswhich are summarized below:

FAR 52.239-YY, Federal Information Systems Using Non-Cloud Computing Services

FAR 52.239-XX, Federal Information Systems Using Cloud Computing Services

In addition to the requirements above, both of these FAR clauses will require contractors to indemnify the government against any liability that arises out of the performance of the contract and is incurred because of the contractors introduction of certain information or matter into Government data or the contractors unauthorized disclosure of certain information or material. The rule also states that contractors shall agree to waive any and all defenses that may be asserted for its benefit, including (without limitation) the Government Contractors Defense. This indemnification provision may open contractors up to significant risk in the event of a data breach or other incident.

Both of these FAR clauses will apply to all contracts and subcontracts for such services, including contracts below the simplified acquisition threshold and contracts or orders for commercial products or services (including commercial off-the-shelf items).

Contractors are encouraged to review these proposed rules, assess their impact and begin preparations to develop new policies and procedures to become compliant with the new requirements. Comments on these rules are due by February 2, 2024.

The #CloudExit Movement And What It Means For Amazon Stock … – Seeking Alpha

4kodiak/iStock Unreleased via Getty Images

The cloud computing industry has been booming for the past two decades, with Amazon Web Services (AWS) being the undisputed leader. However, a growing movement called #CloudExit, which was started by the founders at Basecamp, is calling for businesses to move away from cloud providers like Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and back to on-premises infrastructure for possible cost savings. This movement could pose a significant threat to Amazon's stock price.

According to Amazon's 2022 annual report, AWS is the most profitable segment of Amazon's business, accounting for a significant portion of the company's overall profit. For the year 2022, cloud-computing revenue generated 74% of Amazon's operating profit, despite accounting for just 13% of the company's total revenue. This highlights the high profitability and critical importance of AWS to Amazon's financial performance.

The following table breaks down Amazon's operating profit by segment in 2022:

As you can see in the table above, Amazons cloud-computing division generates more than 2 times the amount of profits generated by any other segment, including Amazons huge retail business. This dominance is driven by the high margins associated with cloud computing services, margins that potentially be squeezed by increased competition from other cloud providers as well as the impact of the #cloudexit movement.

The #CloudExit movement is a grassroots effort gaining popularity in certain developer circles that is calling for businesses to reconsider their use of cloud computing. Proponents of the movement; such as Basecamp founder David Heinemeier argue that cloud computing is too expensive, too complex, and too risky. They also argue that cloud providers like AWS have too much power and that businesses need to take back control of their data.

In his article titled "We Have Left the Cloud," David Heinemeier Hansson details his company's successful migration away from cloud services to self-operated hardware, achieving substantial cost savings. The six-month transition involved bringing on-premises 6 services, including Basecamp Classic and Highrise, promising continued support for existing users. The most impressive move was transitioning the cloud-born HEY email service to their new infrastructure.

Utilizing an open-source stack with tools like KVM, Docker, and Kamal, the company avoided the complexities of Kubernetes and enterprise service contracts. The cost analysis revealed done by David and his team says that there will be estimated annual savings of at least $1.5 million by owning hardware compared to renting from Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Remarkably, they didnt see a need for an increase in the size of the team, challenging the notion that cloud services inherently lead to increased productivity with smaller teams.

In his article, Heinemeier encourages established companies to reconsider the cloud, asserting that benefits are often overstated, and costs are usually higher. The article concludes by urging readers to conduct their own cost analysis and evaluate their specific needs, emphasizing the availability of tools for a successful cloud exit. The experience shared in the article has prompted other companies to rethink their cloud expenditures, highlighting the potential for considerable savings.

Elon Musk's company, X, is celebrating significant cost savings of 60% following its #CloudExit strategy, as revealed by the engineering team. The move involved optimizing the use of cloud service providers and transitioning to on-premises solutions. Notably, the shift reduced monthly cloud costs by 60%, achieved by moving media/blob artifacts out of the cloud. Additionally, cloud data storage size was reduced by 60%, and cloud data processing costs saw a remarkable 75% reduction.

Given earlier reports indicating X's annual spending of $100 million on AWS, the 60% reduction suggests potential savings of $60 million per year. What makes this accomplishment even more impressive is the concurrent downsizing of the engineering team to a quarter of its previous size. Formerly employing around 8,000 individuals, X reportedly now operates with less than 2,000 engineers.

The X story underscores the potential impact on CFOs and investors, highlighting that Musk's success in running a streamlined operation with substantial savings from exiting the cloud could inspire other corporations to explore similar strategies. The #CloudExit concept, as exemplified by X, might be on the verge of becoming a mainstream trend, prompting businesses to evaluate the financial benefits of transitioning away from cloud services.

The #CloudExit movement could have a significant impact on Amazon's stock price. If a large number of businesses decide to move away from AWS, it could lead to a total collapse in profits for the company given AWSs importance in the companys financial performance and their lack of profitability in their other divisions. The heavy reliance on AWS for profits makes Amazon vulnerable to any downturn in the cloud computing market. If demand for AWS services were to decline, it could have a significant impact on Amazon's overall profitability.

It is too early to say what the long-term impact of the #CloudExit movement will be. However, it is clear that the movement is gaining momentum and that it is a potential threat to Amazon's dominance in the cloud computing market.

Investors should be aware of the potential risks to Amazon stock and should monitor the situation closely.

In addition to the #CloudExit movement, there are a number of other factors that could affect Amazon's stock price in the future, including, increased competition from other cloud providers, and economic downturns.

Investors should consider all of these factors when making investment decisions.
