FAQ
Short answers to common questions about the guide and the related technical review process.
No. The answer depends on the type of defense-related work, the information handled, and the expectations flowing down from customers or prime contractors. The first step is confirming scope instead of guessing.
No. Readiness means organizing controls, documentation, evidence, and technical gaps so the business is better prepared. Certification is a separate process handled through authorized channels when required.
