VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

The Department of War is seeking input from businesses across the defense industrial base to help shape the future of Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC).

Following the suspension of CMMC Phase II on July 13, the Department launched a 60-day review and is inviting industry feedback through an official Request for Information (RFI) on SAM.gov.

Share your feedback to help shape a practical, scalable cybersecurity approach that strengthens national security and the defense marketplace while reducing unnecessary burden.

Submit comments through the official SAM.gov RFI:
