Cybersecurity Compliance and CUI Protection (Subcontract Support)

This subcontract supports the prime contractor in achieving full compliance with DFARS cybersecurity requirements, specifically focusing on the protection of covered defense information as outlined in NIST SP 800-171. The scope includes implementing safeguards to secure controlled unclassified information, promptly reporting any cyber incidents, and maintaining proper media preservation practices to ensure forensic readiness and regulatory adherence. The work is performed under the auspices of the Department of Defense through the Defense Logistics Agency, with the North American Industry Classification System code 541990 indicating it falls under other professional, scientific, and technical services. The agreement is positioned as a subcontract, meaning the provider acts in a supporting role to enable the primary contractor to meet federal cybersecurity obligations without assuming direct contractual responsibility with the government. All activities are governed by the stringent standards of NIST SP 800-171 to ensure consistent, auditable protection of sensitive defense data across systems and environments.
