How We Prepare You for the DFARS Interim Rule Requirement
Our compliance solution gets you prepared in 2 steps:
1. Assessment, SSP, & PO&AM
We perform a detailed assessment of your current network and compare it with the cyber security controls required in NIST 800-171. We prepare a System Security Plan (SSP) & Plan-of-Action & Milestones (PO&AM) providing documented evidence to the DoD or your Prime that you’re on your way towards compliance.
2. Remediation
In this step, the items called out in the Plan-of-Action & Milestone (PO&AM) are addressed. Depending on the current state of your IT systems, this can be as simple as implementing multi-factor authentication and security awareness training or as complex as refreshing an entire aging infrastructure.
