The Department of Defense established DFARS 252. 204-701 which specifies that any research containing Controlled 
Unclassified Information (CUI) be protected using NIST 800-171. This presentation will discuss the University of 
Connecticut's approach to implementing the NIST 800-171 framework, including: Contracting, Faculty Engagement, 
Infrastructure Implementation, Training and Controls Review.



The intention of this presentation is to provide a complete picture of what compliance with the NIST Standard requires. 
I will endeavor to describe the entire compliance process starting from conceptualization of the technology solution 
through to the post implementation review. The talk will be designed to appeal to compliance staff, technical staff and 
project managers and will emphasize elements required to build and sustain the compliance program. I will discuss the 
technology elements of our solution, generally, but will focus on how the technologies chosen met our goals of managing 
as many of the compliance requirements centrally as practical while providing a flexible solution.
