Cybersecurity Symphony: Uncle Sam Strikes a Chord with Contractors – Time to Tune Up or Pay Up!
Uncle Sam’s cyber-gloves are on! Sweeping Federal Acquisition Regulation revisions have the Department of Defense, General Services Administration, and NASA joining forces. It’s a symphonic tuning of cybersecurity requirements, and contractors, it’s time to pull up those cyber-socks. Non-compliance with these new rulebooks? That’s a $27,018 penalty per claim under the Federal False Claims Act!
Hot Take:
Uncle Sam is getting serious about cybersecurity, and it looks like he's finally got his act together. The Department of Defense, General Services Administration, and NASA are joining forces to tighten up cyber-defenses. The very fabric of bureaucracy is trembling in the face of these proposed reforms. But, while government agencies are high-fiving each other, contractors may be sweating bullets. Non-compliance could cost them a pretty penny under the Federal False Claims Act. So dear contractors, it's time to pull up those cyber-socks, get your code in a row, and brace for the coming storm.Already a member? Log in here
