Cybersecurity Compliance in Construction: Meeting DoD Requirements and Strengthening Your Competitive Position
Recent industry data shows that 59% of construction firms experience a cyberattack each year, and a single incident can delay projects, damage client relationships, and jeopardize future awards. Starting January 1, 2027, the Department of Defense will require CMMC 2.0 compliance for any contractor or subcontractor handling controlled unclassified information (CUI). Most companies need 9–12 months to achieve compliance.
In this session, Amy Yan of C Three Business Consultants—recipient of the 2025 American General Contractor Association (Missouri) Honoree award and recognized by St. Louis Small Business Monthly as a top consulting and I.T. firm—will walk you through the practical steps required to reach compliance efficiently and cost-effectively. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and other foundational controls, plus insight into how documented cybersecurity maturity is increasingly becoming a differentiator in both government and private-sector bids.
