This weekly podcast sums up the news and developments relevant to CMMC; DFARS and other regulations; and NIST standards such as SP 800-171, SP 800-53, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and others.

CMMC officially goes into effect on November 10th, 2025, at which point all new DoD solicitations and contracts will include at least CMMC Level 1 status requirements. While the government shutdown might affect the pace of new contract awards, it doesn't change anything about the effective date of CMMC specifically. This week we're looking at the trickle of contract notices that are letting people know CMMC is very real and will absolutely be required (including level 2).
