Defense contractors can no longer treat SPRS scores as a formality. Recent False Claims Act settlements show the government is enforcing cybersecurity requirements - with fines in the millions. ❯ Raytheon & Nightwing: $8.4M settlement ❯ Aero Turbine & Gallant: $1.75M settlement The lesson: Inflating compliance claims isn’t just risky - it’s costly. As a C3PAO, we help organizations validate their NIST 800-171 and CMMC posture year-round, so their compliance stands up to scrutiny. 👉 Read Katie Dodson’s latest ACT post: https://lnkd.in/eZJRAk5R

🚨 Major Reform in Defense Acquisition and Requirements 🚨 On August 20, 2025, the Secretary and Deputy Secretary of Defense issued a landmark memorandum reshaping how the Department identifies, funds, and fields critical warfighting capabilities. 🔑 Key Changes Include: ·      Disestablishing JCIDS: Shifting responsibility for requirements to the Services and freeing the Joint Staff to focus on strategic priorities. ·      Re-orienting the JROC: Now tasked with identifying and ranking the Joint Force’s most pressing Key Operational Problems (KOPs) annually. ·      Launching the RRAB: A new Requirements and Resourcing Alignment Board co-chaired by the DepSecDef and VCJCS to tie requirements directly to resources. ·      Standing up the MEIA: Mission Engineering and Integration Activity to drive rapid industry engagement, experimentation, and integration. ·      Creating the Joint Acceleration Reserve (JAR): Dedicated funding to bridge the “valley of death” and accelerate delivery of impactful capabilities. 💡 The Vision: A faster, more agile, and more integrated process that aligns requirements, resourcing, and industry innovation to deliver capabilities at the speed of relevance. #DefenseInnovation #NationalSecurity #DoD #AcquisitionReform

The #CMMC final rule has officially been published in the Federal Register! Phase 1 begins November 10, 2025 and will trigger CMMC requirements to start showing up in DoD contracts. I put together a quick video breaking down what this means, the key dates to know, and how the phased roll-out will affect contractors.

⚠️ CMMC Phase 1 begins Nov 10th ⚠️ It’s official: The final #CMMC rule is out for public inspection today and hits the Federal Register tomorrow. What that means for you: 📅 Starting Nov 10, 2025 → All new DoD contracts will require some level of CMMC 🚨 With only ~80 assessors for 300K+ contractors, audit delays are likely Vanta helps govtech and defense contractors get audit-ready faster. ✅ Pre-mapped requirements aligned to NIST 800-171 and 172 ✅ Automation for evidence collection and security testing ✅ Real-time progress tracking in a single dashboard ✅ Connections to trusted RPOs and C3PAOs If you’ve been waiting to prepare, now’s the time.

November 10 marks a pivotal shift for defense contractors as CMMC 2.0 officially goes live, requiring Level 2 certification for handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). While many contractors are scrambling to understand the 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls, the smartest ones are starting with encryption because it addresses multiple requirements simultaneously - from access control to audit and accountability. This strategic approach transforms compliance from a checkbox exercise into a foundation for secure collaboration across the defense industrial base. https://buff.ly/oW8wASX #CMMC, #DataCentricSecurity, #DefenseContractors, #CUI | Virtru

The sheer amount of critical infrastructure that protects our lives & safety is stunning and the staff managing that infrastructure is fighting an ever-changing set of risks. With that in mind, this summer we join WaterISAC. We joined WaterISAC because state-sponsored attacks are getting more sophisticated. Unlike traditional attackers, these adversaries optimize for chaos and disruption in civilian systems. With Keystrike blocking lateral movement, what used to begin as a single compromised workstation and end with a critical outage can now begin and end on that workstation.
