The controlled unclassified information or CUI replaces the terms like 'For official use only', 'Sensitive but unclassified ', and enforcement sensitive categories.

Thus it has simplified the definition of governmental classified and confidential data into simpler terms but with a much broader objective and implementation.

The National Archives Department of the US was given the objective and responsibility to implement the CUI.

Since the standards, guidelines, and policies have been implemented and amended from time to time for protection and better implementation of CUI across all government departments and agencies.What is the scope of the CUI?The CUI is any type of governmental data that is not intended for public disclosure.

Every person or agency or organization has to be granted rights and obtain the permission of the NARA and the US government for getting access to CUI.

The scope of the data under CUI includes anything that is considered and marked as private and unclassified by the government such as data pertaining to defense projects and safety systems.

It is to be noted that DFARS or Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement regulates and then supplements the Federation Acquisition Regulation, popularly known as FAR.

The DFARS itself is under the administration of DoD, that is, the Department of Defense.In this blog, we will catch hold of the information related to the DFARS that is necessary for every contractor working under the contract or subcontracts of DoD.Companies who manage any design or product owned by DoD are subjected to cybersecurity guidelines by NISTThe National Institute of Standard and Technology or NSIT is responsible for managing the cybersecurity guidelines most of the DoD contractors and sub-contractors are now to follow.These guidelines are termed as CMMC, that is, Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification.

But the information is given only till level 3 as it was rolled out in January 2020.Thus, the majority of the guidelines are still under the microscopic view of the industry insiders who want to establish a proper holding over the instructions to be followed with the stipulated time frame.The DFARS necessitates companies using metals, alloys, steel, or even titanium to get the due permission from the departmentUnlike earlier, the rules set by the DFARS are more stringent.

But it is for the benefit of the contractors under DoD who are pretty serious about their products and services.

These rules levy on the companies that are using metals, alloys, steel, titanium.Even such companies producing these materials on the USA soil must get permission to do so from DFARS.

However, these restrictions apply on companies using materials for final products: aircrafts, ships, weapons, missiles, tanks, ammunition, or automotive.It clearly defines the clear-cut roles and responsibilities of a contracting officerNow contracting officers have surveillance-related roles which they need to fulfill to run their organization as per the guidelines.
