HACS also supports government-wide priorities like Application Security Testing and Zero Trust Architecture.
The scope of HACS includes proactive and reactive cybersecurity services. HACS vendors are categorized under five subgroups for market research purposes. Check a contractor's GSA price list to verify and confirm availability of awarded products and services.
HVA assessments include Risk and Vulnerability Assessment (RVA) which: assesses threats and vulnerabilities, determines deviations from acceptable configurations, enterprise or local policy, assesses the level of risk, and develops and/or recommends appropriate mitigation countermeasures in operational and non-operational situations.
Security Architecture Review evaluates a subset of the agency’s HVA security posture to determine whether the agency has properly architected its cybersecurity solutions and ensures that agency leadership fully understands the risks inherent in the implemented cybersecurity solution.
Some vendors may require a HACS self-attestation form [PDF - 103 KB] to apply for the HACS High Value Assessments subcategory.

Incident response includes services that help organizations impacted by a cybersecurity compromise determine the extent of the incident, remove the adversary from their systems, and restore their networks to a more secure state.
Cyber hunt includes activities that respond to crises or urgent situations within the pertinent domain to mitigate immediate and potential threats. Cyber hunts start with the premise that threat actors known to target some organizations in a specific industry or with specific systems are likely to also target other organizations in the same industry or with the same systems.
Subgroups are provided for market research purposes only; check a contractor’s GSA price list to verify and confirm availability of awarded products and services.
Agencies can order through eBuy and GSA Advantage and issue an RFI or RFQ to vendors using Special Item Number 54151HACS.
