Cybersecurity for Defense Manufacturing: NIST invites proposals from current MEP Centers or consortia of Centers to provide outreach, education, and technical assistance to U.S. manufacturers who supply products within supply chains for the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and who must implement adequate cybersecurity protections as required in the supply of products to the DoD. The primary goal of the work to be conducted via an award issued pursuant to this NOFO is to leverage the expertise of MEP Centers to assist defense manufacturers, with an emphasis on small-to-medium sized contractors, in implementing cybersecurity protections needed to safeguard Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) being handled in defense manufacturing supply chains. (See Section I. of this NOFO for additional information concerning this program.)
