What is CMMC and Why It Matters for the DIB
- Includes Cybersecurity Clauses: Requires contractors to meet security standards such as NIST 800-171 to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
- Impacts Contract Eligibility: Non-compliance can result in loss of contract opportunities or termination of existing contracts.
- Drives Competitive Advantage: Contractors who demonstrate compliance can win more business in the federal space.
