Cybersecurity Compliance and CUI Handling Support

The contract requires the implementation and ongoing maintenance of NIST SP 800-171 security controls across systems that handle controlled unclassified information, ensuring alignment with Department of Defense standards for protecting sensitive data. This includes establishing robust cybersecurity measures to safeguard controlled technical information and maintaining continuous compliance through regular assessments, updates, and documentation. The contractor must also support cyber incident response efforts, promptly identifying, containing, and reporting security breaches in accordance with DoD requirements, including timely submission of incident reports through designated DoD channels. All activities are performed under a subcontract arrangement with the Defense Logistics Agency, a component of the Department of Defense, and are governed by the NAICS code 541512 for computer systems design services. While the place of performance is not specified, the work supports a critical national defense infrastructure function and demands strict adherence to federal cybersecurity protocols. The contract emphasizes sustained operational compliance rather than one-time implementation, requiring proactive monitoring, adaptive controls, and seamless integration with broader DoD reporting frameworks to ensure enduring protection of controlled technical information.
