Cybersecurity Compliance and CDI Protection

The contract requires full implementation of NIST Special Publication 800-171 security controls to protect covered defense information, ensuring compliance with federal cybersecurity standards for safeguarding sensitive data handled under Department of Defense contracts. This includes developing a comprehensive System Security Plan that documents all implemented safeguards, risk assessments, and ongoing management processes to maintain continuous compliance. The contractor must establish robust procedures for detecting, reporting, and responding to cyber incidents involving covered defense information, adhering strictly to mandated timelines and reporting protocols as defined by DoD requirements. The work is performed as a subcontract under the Defense Logistics Agency, with the NAICS code 541512 indicating it falls under computer systems design and related services. Although the place of performance and contact details are not specified, the contract is tied to federal defense infrastructure and requires adherence to stringent security practices across all systems handling protected information. Compliance is not optional; failure to implement controls or report incidents appropriately may result in contract termination or penalties. The solicitation was posted in June 2026, suggesting this is an active or upcoming procurement requiring immediate readiness in cybersecurity posture and documentation.
