The United States’ adversaries are actively working to steal the nation’s military and industrial competitive advantage. Today’s ubiquitous, highly interconnected information systems make that theft easier than ever. The U.S. federal government recognizes the risk to sensitive information housed in contractors’ systems—such as Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). As a result, all federal contractors must implement basic cybersecurity requirements in the internal IT systems that process federal contract-related data.

In addition, contractors that handle information related to Department of Defense contracts must comply with DFARS clauses 252.204-7012 / 7019 / 7020 / 7021, which require more advanced cybersecurity safeguards. These safeguards can be challenging for organizations of any size to implement.

In this course, Adam Austin, Co-Founder, Cybersecurity Lead, and CTO of Totem Technologies, will explain these requirements in layperson’s terms, outline common implementation challenges, and share resources to help you navigate the cybersecurity landscape.

Target Audience: APEX Accelerator counselors, MEP counselors, DoD contract officers and program managers, DoD contractors and IT staff, IT managed service providers, IT managed security service providers
