The Department of Defense (DOD) has released the highly anticipated proposed rule for the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Program (CMMC). CMMC is a unified assessment model released by the DoD in response to the growing threat of cyberattacks and data theft from its supply chain vendors. As proposed, this program requires every Federal contractor that handles DoD sensitive data to comply with certain cybersecurity controls. CMMC will bring greater scrutiny to contractors’ cybersecurity compliance and greater risks associated with failure to comply. To achieve certification, you’re required to prove that your organization can meet a myriad of security control obligations, a process that can be daunting if you’re not familiar with the policies, procedures, and practices that may be required when the program is finalized.

Join us as we discuss CMMC in a live panel webinar featuring Privacy & Cybersecurity and Government Contracts attorneys Evan Wolff, Michael Gruden, Nkechi Kanu, Jacob Harrison and Alexis Ward. Topics will include:

  • Overview of the CMMC proposed rule for CMMC.
  • The CMMC certification process and what to expect.
  • Recommendations for organizations to achieve CMMC certification.
  • Impact of CMMC attestations on other cyber disclosure regulations (e.g, FCA, SEC, etc.).
  • CMMC effects on supply chain management.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
