Automated NIST Risk Management Framework for SMBs and government contractors. CYFORi streamlines control assessments, automates evidence collection, and generates compliance packages so you can focus on your business.
The NIST RMF (NIST SP 800-37) is the federal standard for managing information security risk. For Texas SMBs, compliance with NIST frameworks (particularly NIST 800-53 and NIST 800-171) is increasingly required for government contracts, federal grants, and work with regulated industries.
NIST 800-171 specifically applies to non-federal organizations that process, store, or transmit Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) — making it essential for any Texas SMB working with defense contractors, government agencies, or federal grants.
CYFORi automates the entire RMF process: streamlined workflows, automated security control assessments, and compliance package generation — so Texas SMBs can meet NIST requirements without hiring a full-time compliance team.
If your Texas SMB any of these: works with government agencies, holds federal contracts, handles CUI data, or serves as a subcontractor to defense primes — NIST 800-171 compliance is mandatory.
The DoD's DFARS 252.204-7012 clause requires NIST 800-171 compliance for all contractors handling CUI. Non-compliance means losing contracts and potential False Claims Act liability.
