Source Intelligence, a global best-performing supply chain compliance solution provider, announced the launch of a partnership with EVOTEK, the nation’s premier enabler of secure digital business, to provide a Supply Chain Cybersecurity Solution.
Fighting Identity Crisis and Access Challenges amidst the IoT Boom
The supply chain is the hidden cybersecurity risk that hasn’t yet been adequately addressed. This can be a critical issue, especially for companies in the aerospace and defense sectors where government rules such as Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) require that companies meet the standard described by NIST 800-171 and be prepared to address the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). Version 1.0 of the CMMC was released on January 31, 2020, and is expected to unify cybersecurity standards for future DOD acquisitions.
The fact that the US Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition & Sustainment just released the first version of a new Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification, makes this need for supply chain cybersecurity assessment even more urgent. The aim of this new certification is to allow the DOD to assess and enhance the cybersecurity posture of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB).
“EVOTEK’s industry-leading cybersecurity expertise will be a powerful resource to customers who want to mitigate cybersecurity risk in their supply chain.” – Matt Thorn, President of Source Intelligence.
