The Cyber Law Consortium is sponsoring a defense industry conference on the topic of DFARS cybersecurity compliance June 15 – 16, 2020, in Dallas, Texas. It is expected that starting in June, 2020, or soon thereafter, the DoD will require DoD prime contractors and all of their Sub-Tier vendors to provide proof of compliance with the revised DFARS NIST CUI 800-171 regulations.
The purpose of the conference will be to better understand the current DFARS requirements, risks of non-compliance, emerging requirements under CMMC, and address persistent barriers to compliance for large, small, and mid-sized businesses, and their Sub-Tier suppliers.
