DFARS 239.7103 Contract clauses.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This section tells contracting officers when to include two specific DFARS clauses in solicitations and contracts. One clause covers protection against compromising emanations for certain information technology, and the other covers information assurance contractor training and certification. It matters to contractors because it shows which requirements may be added to their contracts based on the work involved.

Applies to: Solicitations and contracts involving information technology requiring protection against compromising emanations, or contractor performance of information assurance functions as described in DoD 8570

Key terms: Protection Against Compromising Emanations · Information Assurance Contractor Training and Certification · compromising emanations · information assurance functions · DoD 8570.01-M
