Government Contractors Prepare for Cyber-Warfare

In Government Contractors Brace For Continuing Changes in Cybersecurity Regulations, my Pillsbury colleague Travis Mullaney and I caution that the federal government is making cybersecurity a top priority and government contractors should expect a number of new regulation’s, policies and standards aimed at protecting against increasingly sophisticated cyber-warfare. As the government invigorates its own cybersecurity, contractors are and will be subject to parallel requirements. All federal contractors need a cybersecurity strategy that aligns with their business strategy with the federal government that will make them more competitive as requirements are invigorated through ongoing federal regulatory changes.
