Cybersecurity
for the Defense Industry

Global powers want access to the US Department of Defense information (DoD) systems and data. Nation state- sponsored bad actors are relentless and increasingly sophisticated. Doing business with the DoD requires a much higher level of security awareness and resilience than nearly any other sector. DoD contractors must have a robust cyber program in place, both to meet contract requirements, and to do their own diligence in securing and defending our nation. At SideChannel, we specialize in supporting the DoD contractor system and the Defense Industrial Base with highly tailored cybersecurity services that protect data, prevent breaches, and maintain compliance.

SideChannel supports all current DFARS requirements within the DoD Assessment Methodology including NIST 800-171 gap analysis, Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) score, and SSP plus POAM creation. We work with you to meet the security requirements to an offer, contract, task order, or delivery order.

Advancing our nation’s defense

Federal contractors are seen as vulnerable targets for cybercriminals. Your organization is often the subject of attacks due to proximity to agencies and access to important federal information. As a contractor, it’s crucial to focus on cybersecurity to prevent attacks from nation-states, hacktivists, and other malicious actors. Our team has led programs for the DoD, Pentagon, Intelligence Community, and more, and knows what it takes to help federal contractors protect their data. We’ll help build a cybersecurity program that works for your organization.

Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Services

The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment (OUSD(A&S)) recognizes that security is foundational to acquisition and should not be traded along with cost, schedule, and performance moving forward. The Department is committed to working with the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) sector to enhance the protection of controlled unclassified information (CUI) within the supply chain. CUI training is required to meet CMMC levels and certification.

SideChannel is a CMMC Authorized Registered Provider Organization (RPO) with multiple trained CMMC Registered Practitioners (RP) focusing on CMMC consulting, NIST 800-171 compliance and readiness to organizations that store, process, and/or transmit either Federal Contract Information (FCI) or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
