What is NIST SP 800-171?

NIST 800-171, established by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), comprises security guidelines and requirements. It offers a framework of security controls and best practices, essential for safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Government defense contractors must adhere to NIST 800-171 to fulfill contractual obligations involving CUI handling. Organizations governed by the DFARS 7012 clause are mandated to assess their security posture, implement necessary controls, and conduct security checks to demonstrate compliance with these guidelines.
