Edward Tuorinsky, Managing Principal of DTS, brings an extensive background in management consulting and information technology services. With his expertise, he sheds light on the potential impact of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program on businesses in the defense industrial base and the wider private sector.
The release of the proposed rule for the CMMC program by the Department of Defense (DoD) signifies a significant step towards securing the country's critical infrastructure. This comprehensive cybersecurity initiative aims to ensure that all businesses in the defense industrial base meet minimum cybersecurity standards. Once fully implemented, the CMMC program has the potential to influence hundreds of thousands of DoD contract awards annually, as well as millions of business relationships in the private sector.
