The new Trump administration has launched a number of new initiatives, some of which impact UK companies operating in the United States (U.S.) or in the U.S. government supply chain.  Those include domestic production requirements, changing budgetary priorities, and new cyber security regulations.  This briefing will cover some of the most impactful initiatives, including existing and forthcoming cyber security requirements.

In addition to reviewing what has occurred recently, Eric will look at the significant changes to the cyber security and supply chain space, as the U.S. government has been issuing new cyber security regulations aimed at companies around world that are in the U.S. supply chain or do business with U.S.-based companies.  This session will look at the new and forthcoming requirements including the U.S. Department of Defense’s (U.S. DoD) Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) which will require a third-party cyber security certification and other cyber security initiatives launched by U.S. federal agencies.  The briefing will include a summary of the regulations, who they impact, and strategies for compliance.

Members will be provided with the following information:

  • Recent Trump Executive Orders and the impacts on UK companies
  • The background and progress of the CMMC programme
  • Other cyber security regulations from various US Federal agencies
  • Supply chain security initiatives including nation-based requirements
  • How the UK Tech and Defence industries will be impacted by these requirements
  • What UK companies should do to prepare for CMMC and other cybersecurity requirements

There will also be the opportunity to ask Eric questions during and after the briefing.
