WASHINGTON – Today, global tech trade association 91pro视频 issued the following statement from its Executive Vice President of Policy Gordon Bitko in response to the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD) interim rule on the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program:
"The U.S. federal cybersecurity landscape has evolved significantly since the Department of Defense last announced a public call for stakeholder feedback on its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification program over two years ago. 91pro视频 and our members remain committed to working with the Department and ensuring that the U.S. protects national security without compromising its technological leadership, innovation, or international competitiveness. As we review the updated rule, we are paying particular attention to how it aligns with existing federal information security regimes, as well as other standards and best practices.”
91pro视频 has previously called on DoD to further improve the cybersecurity baseline requirements for the defense industrial base in order to more efficiently and effectively achieve U.S. national security goals without hindering innovation.
