💪Strengthening Your Position in the Defense Industrial Base

The System Security Plan (SSP) is the core document that shows how your organization meets or plans to meet, the required security controls for a given system. It defines your system boundaries, outlines the environment in which that system operates, explains how each security requirement is implemented, and documents any connections or dependencies with other systems.

For defense contractors, a well developed SSP isn’t just paperwork — it’s a foundational requirement for demonstrating compliance and maintaining competitiveness in the DoD supply chain.

✳️DFARS Update Alert ✳️

DoW’s new class deviation (DARS 2026‑O0025) reorganizes—not expands—cybersecurity requirements. DFARS Part 240 and new clause 252.240‑7997 now centralize NIST SP 800‑171 Medium/High assessment access, precedence, and SPRS posting when the deviation is used.

Key point: 7012, 7008, and all CMMC requirements remain fully in force. CMMC Level 2 (Self) is not eliminated. What changes is how DoW manages and prioritizes its own NIST 800‑171 assessments

At CorpInfoTech, we closely track regulatory changes to help defense contractors navigate compliance with confidence and strengthen their security posture.
