DFARS

DFARS stands for Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement. It is a set of regulations used by the United States Department of Defense (DoD) to ensure that its suppliers and contractors comply with specific security requirements related to protecting sensitive information, commonly referred to as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

DFARS requires contractors to implement specific security measures to protect CUI from unauthorized access, disclosure, and use. These measures include implementing security controls and reporting any cybersecurity incidents or breaches that may occur.

Calvetti Ferguson offers a DFARS compliance service which is important for both the DoD and its contractors, as it helps to ensure the security and integrity of sensitive information used in the defense industry. Compliance with DFARS is mandatory for contractors doing business with the DoD, and failure to comply can result in financial penalties and loss of contracts.
