CMMC Phase II is paused. Contractor liability is not.

The temporary suspension of CMMC Phase II may have changed the certification timeline, but it did not eliminate contractors' cybersecurity obligations.

NIST SP 800-171 requirements still apply. Contractual cybersecurity requirements remain. And the potential for False Claims Act liability hasn't disappeared.

So what should defense contractors be doing now?

Our latest blog explains what the Phase II pause means, what hasn't changed, and why this is an opportunity to strengthen your cybersecurity posture before the next phase takes shape.

✅ The third-party assessment may be paused.
✅ Your contractual cybersecurity requirements are not.
✅ False Claims Act liability remains a risk for organizations that cannot support their cybersecurity representations.

Now is the time to strengthen your cybersecurity posture—not stop preparing.

Read our latest article to learn what the announcement means for defense contractors.

Most title companies have wire verification procedures.

The question is whether they're being followed consistently.

When teams are busy and deadlines are tight, even a single skipped step can create significant risk.

Consistency is one of the strongest defenses against wire fraud.

Most defense contractors are about to learn this the hard way:
CMMC is already being enforced.

Not “soon.”
Not “next year.”
Now.

Prime contractors are starting to require CMMC certification just to stay eligible for work.
Meanwhile, the average time from solicitation to award? ~10 months

That’s not enough time to get compliant from scratch.

So what’s happening?
• Some contractors are still waiting
• Others are already moving
• A small group is about to take a lot of market share

CMMC isn’t a deadline. It’s a timing problem.
And right now, timing is everything.
