Pentagon demands contractors up cybersecurity

Susan Cassidy is quoted in a San Antonio Express-News article regarding new cybersecurity requirements for contractors. According to Cassidy, "Essentially, the DOD wants its contractors to protect its information, because the DOD is a huge target, and its contractors are also a target." Commenting on the fact that over the years, contractors have been working with the department on cybersecurity standards, Cassidy adds, "Having one standard is better than having 12 standards."
