NIST SP 800-171 is a special publication by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) that establishes 110 security requirements for protecting CUI — unclassified but sensitive government information — in the hands of non-governmental suppliers.
NIST 800-171 is the basis for CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) — the DoD's new requirement for supplier approval. Israeli suppliers working with DoD must comply with both.
CBE doesn't just guide you to NIST 800-171 — we build a framework that integrates NIST, ISO 27001 and CMMC, because the US government requires all of them.
