In a cybersecurity context DoD usually signals a specific compliance regime rather than the organization itself: DFARS clause 252.204-7012 and its NIST SP 800-171 requirements for contractors handling controlled unclassified information, the CMMC assessment program layered on top, DISA STIGs for system hardening, and the DoD 8140 workforce qualification framework that maps job roles to approved certifications.
