@DoW_CIO This is the literal definition of insanity. CMMC was birthed because defense contractors don’t actually implement cybersecurity requirements. Going back to self-assessment only advances the militaries of our adversaries.

The DoW is immediately suspending CMMC Phase II requirements to clear bureaucratic roadblocks for the DIB. We must scale warfighter readiness, not paperwork. What you need to know: · Phase II & costly administrative burdens are paused. · Phase I self-assessments remain firmly in place. · NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 and DFARS 252.204-7012 compliance are still required. · Focus is shifting to tangible cybersecurity and operational resilience, not red tape. To uplift cybersecurity while eliminating unnecessary bureaucracy, we’ve launched a 60-day review on the future of the program to be led by a CMMC Reform Task Force. We are also seeking industry perspectives from the DIB via our new RFI on driving scalable, realistic security measures and operational resilience without compliance burden.

@krassenstein Well this aged like milk.

This us SICK! A WHITE MALE (again) has reportedly opened fire at immigrants at an ice facility in Dallas, Texas. We certainly have a problem in this country. A disgusting problem.

@GovPressOffice This is actually a disgusting post for a national holiday. This is how you represent? Never felt like I needed to block anything here before. This does it. Grats.

HAPPY LABOR DAY TO ALL, INCLUDING THE SCUM THAT IS TRYING TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY WITH A SICK WARPED RADICAL MIND, KILLING SMALL BUSINESSES WITH CRAZY TARIFFS, TAKING HEALTH CARE FROM CHILDREN, PARDONING J6 THUGS, SENDING THE "PRIVATE ARMY" TO ARREST GRANDMA, WRECKING OUR BEAUTIFUL ENVIRONMENT, DEFUNDING OUR SCHOOLS, AND DESTABILIZING LONG-STANDING INTERNATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS. HOPEFULLY THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT, AND OTHER GOOD AND COMPASSIONATE JUDGES THROUGHOUT THE LAND, WILL SAVE US FROM THE DECISIONS OF THE MONSTERS WHO WANT OUR COUNTRY TO GO TO HELL. BUT FEAR NOT, WE HAVE MADE GREAT PROGRESS IN RECENT WEEKS, AND AMERICA WILL SOON BE SAFE AND GREAT AGAIN! AGAIN, HAPPY LABOR DAY, AND GOD BLESS AMERICA! — GCN
