Which of the following DFARS regulations is currently enforced?

  1. DFARS 7021

  2. DFARS 7012

  3. DFARS 7022

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: DFARS 7012

DFARS 7012 is currently enforced and relates specifically to the protection of controlled unclassified information (CUI) in the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain. This regulation establishes requirements for contractors and subcontractors to implement adequate cybersecurity measures and report any cyber incidents. It is a critical component of ensuring that the defense industrial base is resilient against cyber threats. In contrast, DFARS 7021 and DFARS 7022, while they also address aspects of cybersecurity and safeguarding sensitive information, are not as broadly applied or have not reached the same level of enforcement as DFARS 7012. Thus, currently, DFARS 7012 remains the key regulation that contractors must comply with in order to engage in business with the DoD, highlighting its importance in protecting sensitive information. This emphasis on DFARS 7012 underscores the requirement for a foundational cybersecurity posture within the defense industrial base.
