DOD compliance and NIST 800-171 implementation for defense contractors
CyberSheath specializes in DOD cybersecurity compliance—NIST 800-171, DFARS, and CMMC—for defense contractors. The founding team drafted the original DFARS clauses in 2013 and has completed thousands of assessments since. Their tech stack is heavily Microsoft-centric (Defender, Sentinel, Purview DLP, Azure) with forensics tools (Chronicle, Sumo Logic) and endpoint management (NinjaOne, CyberArk), reflecting a services business built around assessment, implementation, and continuous monitoring rather than product licensing alone. Current hiring velocity is accelerating with security roles dominating (10 open positions), paired with customer success and support (7 roles each), signaling a pivot toward operational scaling and retention—a known pain point.
