The goal of CUI-CON is to assist DoD Contractors in their implementation of NIST SP 800-171 and to prepare for their Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Conformity Assessment.

What are CUI-CON the conferences about?

CUI-CON conferences are about everything a Department of Defense (DoD) contractor must do to protect the Federal Government’s Intellectual Property (a.k.a., Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)). The government specified information security requirements in 2017 and 3rd Party Certification of the contractor’s implementation is expected to go into effect late 2024/early 2025.

This is a working conference focused on helping Organizations Seeking Compliance.

What is driving this?

The DoD will implement its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program beginning late 2024/early 2025. The CMMC Program will require Defense Contractors and their supply chains to be certified to win contracts and keep working for DoD.

What businesses should attend this conference?

Companies that do business with the Department of Defense have to protect DoD’s Intellectual Property (a.k.a., CUI). If your business has:

  • FAR clause 52.204–21, “Basic Safeguarding of Covered Contractor Information Systems” in your contracts;
  • DFARS clause 252.204–7012, “Safeguarding Covered Defense Information and Cyber Incident Reporting” in your contracts…
  • Does work for the DoD and has ITAR data…
  • Just started with CMMC efforts…

This conference is for you.

Who from a business should attend?

Optimally, it would be the executive in charge of changing the business’s culture. Implementing CMMC is not a Information Technology problem–it is an executive one that will drive changes to how your business operates.

How will attending help my company?

CUI-CON is bringing experts from across the nation to help your organization address three key questions:

What is CMMC and why do I have to do this?

How does my organization get ready for a CMMC Conformity Assessment?

What tools and methods can we use to get ready?

The last CUI-CON was held 22-23 February 2024 in Orlando Florida.
