A gap analysis is critical for contractors and subcontractors within the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) who need to become compliant with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification 2.0 regulation.

Colleges and universities that perform research and development services for the federal government related to national security and infrastructure must meet the same cybersecurity standards as commercial businesses within the U.S. Defense Industrial Base (DIB).

If you’re a contractor or subcontractor within the U.S. Defense Industrial Base (DIB), then you’re well aware of the cybersecurity requirements outlined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

If you’re a contractor or subcontractor working with the Department of Defense, then you’re already familiar with the reporting requirements for the government’s Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS).
