What is NIST 800-171?

National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) special publication 800-171 is a set of rules outlining how to safeguard and distribute Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) data for non-federal organizations

NIST 800-171 was made after the Federal Information Security Management Act was passed over a decade ago. It was mainly developed to enhance cybersecurity and to ensure CUI data is fully protected and consistent.

Prior to FISMA, agencies had different sets of standards for data handling across the board, which posed potential security risks when data was shared or utilized by multiple contractors

Compliance with NIST 800-171

The new standards should be met by anyone who either stores or transmits this kind of potentially sensitive information, CUI for the GSA or DoD.

That also includes the contractual agency relationships. Achieving this compliance will require getting deep into the procedures to make sure the appropriate security protocols are addressed.

If the protocols arenʼt properly addressed, this could severely affect any deals with agencies including contract severances. If someone misses a deadline, you can be at high risk of losing contracts or damaging relationships.

NIST 800-171 standards are extensive and time consuming to implement, but will have many advantages for your data and business.

Advantages of Having a Compliant Environment

Protection of Vital Assets

NIST 800-171 is a cybersecurity framework that allows an organization to boost up security of itʼs systems. As information leaks are unpredictable and at times unavoidable, being compliant with the standards will help an organization to better protect vital data in case of a breach.

Reducing Downtime

Being compliant with NIST 800-171 will ensure that a company has proper procedures in place to effectively respond to a data leak. Quick detection and response time can help shorten the overall impact of that data breach on the company. In addition, the downtime a company will experience post-breach will be minimized

Avoiding Loss of Customers

Over 30 percent of the consumers surveyed have stated that they are willing to discontinue their relationship with an organization after it has been breached. Also, more than 60 percent of them reported a loss of trust in these organizations.

Maintaining Reputation

Breaches can have severe negative impacts and can damage the hard-earned reputation of the company. According to a survey, it was recorded that the share values of publicly traded organizations for a month before the data breach and 3 months later dropped by more than 5 percent

Avoiding Legal and Financial Repercussions

In case a company isnʼt compliant and suffers a breach, then the affected parties can seek to recover damages through various litigation activities. If any government data is compromised as a result of a breach, then the agency can pursue legal action and charge fines
