### Project 334 — Securing the DIB: CMMC

The DoW CIO defense industrial base (DIB) cybersecurity initiative includes the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program, cybersecurity strategy, policy, and capability development efforts to support our DIB partners and our DIB supporting capabilities. This program works side-by-side with other DoW CIO programs, including the DoW CIO information systems security program (PE 0303140D8Z), to provide focused DoW capability requirements to assess DIB contractor and subcontractor compliance with existing federal contract and controlled unclassified information (CUI) protection requirements, protecting the information from cybersecurity risks, including advanced persistent threats. It also includes efforts to develop, test, and distribute DoW cybersecurity services for DIB partners and stakeholders. This program works in alignment with/to meet the FY 2022 – FY 2026 DoW Strategic Management Plan, DoW CIO 2024 DIB Cybersecurity Strategy, and DoW CIO 2022 Zero Trust (ZT) Strategy. This program also supports defending the homeland and revitalizing America’s DIB by transforming the future force foundation and adapting and fortifying our defense ecosystem.
