Well “up in arms” may be a bit strong. But small business advocates like Carol White, the Air Force’s deputy director for small business programs, are reporting that a recent Department of Defense contracting rule may put small government contractors at a disadvantage. That’s according to a report from Federal News Radio.
The new rule requires multifactor identification on any contractor owned system that uses certain Defense Department information. It also imposes certain reporting requirements in the event the system is hacked or compromised.
