What is the window for reporting suspected or actual breaches to the DoD?
- Arlington Security Portal - Show on: Side Bar
Because the DoD must respond quickly to change operational plans and to implement measures to respond to new threats and vulnerabilities, contractors are to report any potential breaches to DoD within 72 hours of discovery of any incident. Additionally, contractors must also cooperate with DoD to respond to security incidents, which means preserving and protecting all evidence and capturing as much information about the incident as possible.
