The federal government utilizes contractors to provide routine services and products to achieve the nation’s missions and conduct operations. During the course of business, the government shares sensitive information with federal contractors, which is then stored, processed, and transmitted via information systems. Department of Defense (DoD) contractors must abide by Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) requirements for protecting Covered Defense Information (CDI), which is directly related to national security.
