    GSA CUI Security Requirements

    Help GSA vendors who access, transmit, or store CUI comply with the IT Security Procedural Guide CIO-IT Security-21-112 and RMF requirements.

    The Challenge

    New GSA CUI Requirements Are Here

    GSA has implemented CUI security requirements based on CIO-IT Security-21-112 for all vendors who handle Controlled Unclassified Information. These requirements align with the Risk Management Framework (RMF) and NIST guidelines.

    GSA contractors must now demonstrate compliant CUI handling practices, including proper documentation, access controls, and ongoing monitoring — or risk contract eligibility.

    • Applies to all GSA vendors handling CUI
    • RMF-aligned assessment and authorization required
    • Continuous monitoring obligations
    • Contract compliance enforcement increasing
