DFARS & NIST 800-171 COMPLIANCE FOR DEFENSE CONTRACTORS

CMMC | DFARS | NIST
Whether you’re directly providing services or products to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) or sub-contracting for an organization that does, the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) minimum security standards applies to you! Since December 31, 2017, all DoD contractors (including sub-contractors) have been required to meet the minimum security requirements (and show proof) to maintain existing or win new contracts.

Not a defense contractor yet? Have you been considering bidding on contracts or working with largest defense contractors? DFARS compliance is a perfect first step towards expanding your business to provide services or products to the DoD.

Your IT Department, LLC helps DoD contractors cost-effectively establish and maintain cybersecurity standards that comply with the requirements laid out by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Specifically, compliance with NIST SP 800-171, which protects Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

Smaller defense contractors like you are an integral part of our country’s military supply chain, but resources to develop and maintain security protocols are often limited. Your IT Department, LLC evaluates existing protections, implements security technology, and process/procedures that stay up to date. We continuously monitor activity, and provide the controlled access required by DFARS without having to hire additional employees or burden existing IT staff.
