DFARS 7012 Compliance
Made For Aerospace and Defense
Trusted By Subcontractors of Major Prime Contractors
What is DFARS 7012 Compliance?
The DFARS 7012 clause is a set of cybersecurity regulations aerospace and defense contractors and suppliers must follow to receive new contracts from prime contractors and the Department of Defense. DFARS 7012 consists of 3 major requirements:
1
Requirement 1
Hit a minimum level of cybersecurity by implementing the 110 cybersecurity controls in NIST SP 800-171.
2
Requirement 2
Report Cyber Incidents to the DoD. Have the capability to isolate images and logs of information systems for 90 days.
3
Requirement 3
Notify and ensure that your subcontractors that they need to be DFARS 7012 compliant in order to do defense work.
Why Does DFARS 7012 Compliance Matter?
Score Submission
All prime and subcontractors must submit their DFARS 7012 cybersecurity score to the Department of Defense and prime contractor part of new contracts.
Compliance Audits
Prime Contractors now conduct cybersecurity audits to verify DFARS 7012 compliance as part of the supplier quality audits.
New Work
Prime Contractors and the military are no longer sending new work to contractors who are not compliant with DFARS 7012.
What Do I Need To Prove DFARS 7012 Compliance?
1
Hit Minimum Level of Cybersecurity
Implement the 110 cybersecurity controls in NIST 800-171.
2
Generate a System Security Plan
A System Security Plan is a 300-400 page document showing how your company complies with each of the 110 controls in the NIST 800-171. This document is sent to your military customer and/or prime contractor to prove compliance
3
Submit Cybersecurity Score
Your cybersecurity score is sent to the military and or prime contractor. This score is used to gauge your risk as a supplier and influences whether or not you will win work in the future.
