DEFENSE MANUFACTURING
COMPLIANCE & INDUSTRIAL BASE
Secure your CAD files, shop floor systems, and CUI to protect your defense contracts.
WHO THIS APPLIES TO
If your operation supports government contracts, achieving full defense manufacturing compliance is mandatory to protect CUI and maintain your supply chain status.
CORE MANUFACTURING
- Defense manufacturing companies
- Precision manufacturing firms
- CNC and machining shops
- Metal fabrication companies
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
- Electronics manufacturers
- Industrial equipment manufacturers
- Additive manufacturing and 3D printing providers
- Defense supply chain and component manufacturers
COMMON COMPLIANCE CHALLENGES
Manufacturing environments often combine IT, OT, and cloud systems, increasing complexity.
PROTECTING CAD FILES
Securing technical drawings, specs, and engineering data.
SHOP FLOOR CUI
Managing CUI access across shared shop floor systems and users.
SECURING LEGACY OT
Protecting legacy equipment and operational technology without patching support.
SUPPLIER DATA FLOW
Controlling data shared with subcontractors and material suppliers.
NETWORK SEGREGATION
Separating compliant IT environments from non-compliant production zones.
PRODUCTION UPTIME
Balancing strict security controls with production efficiency requirements.
KEY REGULATIONS
Manufacturers supporting defense contracts are commonly subject to prime contractor flow down requirements and:
- [REQ-01] CMMC Level 2 Requirements
- [REQ-02] NIST SP 800-171 Security Controls
- [REQ-03] DFARS 252.204-7012 Clauses
- [REQ-04] ITAR (22 CFR 120-130)
- [REQ-05] Export Admin Regulations (EAR)
- [REQ-06] Prime Contractor Flow Downs
HOW WE HELP MANUFACTURERS
As a managed security service provider, we specialize in defense manufacturing compliance. We help manufacturers identify CUI, secure CNC/CAD systems, and implement CMMC Level 2 controls effectively.
Identify CUI & Data Flow
Automated tagging and mapping of CUI within technical drawings, specifications, and CAD files.
Design Compliant Architectures
Implementing network segmentation to strictly isolate Defense project data from commercial work.
Secure CAD, ERP & CNC Systems
High-performance security for SolidWorks/CATIA environments without sacrificing rendering speed or latency.
Implement CMMC Level 2 Controls
Deploying the 110 NIST SP 800-171 controls tailored specifically for complex engineering workflows.
Develop Policies & Documentation
Creating comprehensive SSPs that address ITAR controls, remote access, and portable media usage.
Prepare for Audits (Assessments)
Gap analysis and mock audits to validate your environment’s readiness for C3PAO certification.
WHY SPECIALIZATION MATTERS
Generic IT providers often overlook shop floor realities. True defense manufacturing compliance requires addressing OT security, legacy equipment, and strict production uptime requirements.
- Operational Technology (OT) Security
- Supplier & Subcontractor Data Sharing
- Shop Floor System Constraints
- Production Uptime Requirements
