EXHIBIT"A"
EXTRANET STANDARD
Overview
The purpose of this standard is to establish the requirements under which third party organizations may
connect to the City of Fort Worth networks for the purpose of transacting City business. The standards
listed are specific activities required by Section 2.2 of the City of Fort Worth Information Security Policy.
go-P-9
Connections between third parties that require access to non-public City of Fort Worth resources fall
under this standard, regardless of whether a telecommunications circuit(such as frame relay or ISDN) or
Virtual Privacy Network(VPN) technology is used for the connection. Connectivity to third parties such as
the Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that provide Intemet access for the City of Fort Worth or to the
Public Switched Telephone Network do not fall under this standard.
Standard
Secuft Review
All new extranet connectivity will go through a security review with the Information Security department(IT
Solutions). The reviews are to ensure that all access matches the business requirements in a best
possible way, and that the principle of least access is followed.
Third Party Connection Agreement
All new connection requests between third parties and the City of Fort Worth require that the third party
and the City of Fort Worth representatives agree to and sign a third party agreement. This agreement
must be signed by the Director of the sponsoring organization as well as a representative from the third
party who is legally empowered to sign on behalf of the third party. The signed document is to be kept on
file witth IT Solutions. All documents pertaining to connections into the City of Fort Worth labs are to be
kept on file with IT Solutions.
Business Case
All production extranet connections must be accompanied by a valid business justification, in writing, that
is approved by a project manager in 1T Solutions. Lab connections must be approved by IT Solutions.
Typically this function is handled as part of a third party agreement.
The sponsoring organization must designate a person to be the Point of Contact (POC) for the Extranet
connection. The POC acts on behalf of the sponsoring organization, and is responsible for those portions
of this policy and the third party agreement that pertain to it. In the event that the POC changes, IT
Solutions must be informed promptly.
Establishina Connectivity
Sponsoring organizations with n the City of Fort Worth that wish to establish connectivity to a third party
are to file a new site request with IT Solutions to address security issues inherent in the project. If the
proposed connection Is to terminate within a lab at the City of Fort Worth, the sponsoring organization
must engage IT Solutions. The sponsoring organization must provide full and complete information as to
the nature of the proposed access to the extranet group and IT Solutions, as requested.
All connectivity established must be based on the least-access principle, in accordance with the approved
business requirements and the security review. In no case will the City of Fort Worth rely upon the third
party to protect the City of Fort Worth's network or resources.

Modifv_I,no,or Changing Connectivity and Access
All changes in access musk be accompanied by a valid business justification, and are subject to securily
review. Changes are to be implemented via corporate change managernent process. The sponsoring
organization is responsible for notifying IT Solutions whe.i there is a material change in their originally
provided information so that security and connectivity Evolve accordingly.
Terminating Access
When access is no longer required, the sponsoring organization within the City of Fort Worth must notify
IT Solutions, which will then terminate the access. This may mean a modification of existing permissions
up to terminating the circuit, as appropriate. IT Solutions must conduct an audit of their respective
connections on an annual basis to ensure that all existing connections are still needed, and that the
access provided meets the needs of the connection. Connections that are found to be deprecated, and/or
are no longer being used to conduct the City of Fort Worth business, will be 'errninated immediately.
Should a security incident or a finding that a circuit has been deprecated and is no longer being used to
conduct the City of Fart Worth Dusine5s necessitate a modification of existing permissions, or termination
of connectivity, IT Solutions will notify the PQC or the sponsoring organization of the change prior to
taking any action.
