That consistency directly supports DIBCAC\u2019s role in evaluating critical defense programs under [Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification](https:\/\/business.defense.gov\/Programs\/Cyber-Security-Resources\/CMMC-20\/) Level 3 requirements.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDIBCAC sits at a critical point in the acquisition process,\u201d said Nick DelRosso, DIBCAC director. \u201cThese assessments help validate whether our most important contractors can protect sensitive information and that directly impacts who supplies the warfighter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DIBCAC assessors serve a key role in protecting sensitive defense information tied to the nation\u2019s most vital programs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTheir assessments act as a gate for contractors supporting the department\u2019s most critical systems, which ensures those environments meet strict cybersecurity standards before a contract can be awarded,\u201d DelRosso said.<\/p>\n<p>During the training, industry experts provided technical briefings on cloud environments commonly used across the defense industrial base.
