DoD’s new CMMC Interim Rule focuses on industry protection of Controlled Unclassified Information against threats to networks and information systems. Already, DoD is planning to extend the CMMC framework to address national interests beyond data protection, such as product integrity, protection of operational technology (OT) and action to identify and respond to supply chain threats. This forward-looking program will forecast how the public sector will address key vulnerabilities in OT and the supply chain in the future.
As concerns the supply chain, the presentation will address distinct risks to hardware, software, logistics and the workforce. They will review the range of Congressional and agency initiatives already underway or in the works. They will also consider how emerging standards and best practices will influence government and industry measures to protect OT and supply chain security, and will discuss key enabling technologies, such as supply chain illumination. Regardless of whether there is a change in Administration, we expect new laws, regulations and government policies, as well as acquisition and oversight measures like those DoD has recently applied for cyber security to continue and potentially even increase. Their intent is to help companies understand the emerging cyber supply chain risk management landscape and plan now for the new requirements that lie ahead.
