On December 31, 2017, certain defense contractors with nonfederal systems that contain controlled unclassified information must implement NIST SP 800-171 if their contracts are subject to DFARS 252.204-7012.
While this standard isn’t new, your systems must comply in 2018. Many engineering firms have controlled unclassified information and they must be aware the enforcement requirement and how the DOD will enforce this rule.
This webinar will help you understand when you need to comply and how to avoid any potential penalties for noncompliance with this new rule. It will help to outline how this program could be used by non-DOD agencies in the future.
Join our speaker to learn how to comply with the new DFARS rules. You will understand how noncompliance with the new policy could affect your contracts, explore areas for better compliance, and how to judge whether this issue effects your contracts now or in the future.
