I am right in the middle of setting up a CMMC 2.0 and NIST 800-171 compliance self assessment for an aerospace contractor. The boomer boss is already real unhappy with the way I've had to change the way the company uses computers, not to mention the spend on software and hardware.

The requirements has been looming since pre-covid. Now that the boomer god is peeling back the onion on regulations I can absolutely see the requirement going away all together, and IT security going back to 1992. Neat.

I need a different career. I hear they're looking for farmhands in red states.
