πŸ” Want to stay ahead in the world of government contracts and cybersecurity? Dive into our latest CMMC News episode where we explore the NIST SP 800-171 DoD Assessment Requirements. It's all about breaking through the wall of acronyms and jargon to ensure you know exactly what the Department of Defense expects when it comes to protecting sensitive information.

Here are 3 key takeaways:

  • Understand Assessment Levels: We break down the three types of cybersecurity assessments β€” Basic, Medium, and High β€” and what each level of confidence means for your contract requirements with the DoD.
  • Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS): Learn how all assessment scores are recorded in SPRS, the centralized database that helps the DoD gauge the cybersecurity health of their contractors.
  • Subcontractor Compliance: Discover how these requirements flow down to subcontractors and what obligations primes have to ensure their partners are compliant.

Stay informed, secure those contracts, and fortify your cybersecurity posture! πŸŽ§πŸ”’
