NIST CSF and 800-171 implementation — build a security program aligned with the gold standard framework.

Whether you’re pursuing NIST compliance for government contracts, cyber insurance requirements, or simply to build a robust security program, TVG Consulting implements NIST controls efficiently and effectively.

We make NIST practical — not just a binder on a shelf, but a working security program.

Why businesses move to managed IT

Two offices, both local to the clients they serve. Los Angeles–area support runs from our Burbank office at 217 West Alameda Ave #102, and Middle Tennessee support runs from our Franklin office at 625 Bakers Bridge Ave Ste 105 — so an on-site visit is a drive across town, not a flight.

FBI InfraGard member. TVG participates in InfraGard, the FBI’s information-sharing partnership between the Bureau and private-sector organizations that operate critical infrastructure. It is a partnership for threat intelligence, not an endorsement or a certification.

Managed IT and a vCIO in the same engagement. Proactive monitoring, patching, help desk and layered security for a predictable monthly fee — plus budgeting, lifecycle planning and a technology roadmap, so somebody is thinking about next year while someone else is fixing today.

What the current data says — 2026

Figure What it measures Source
$4.99M Global average cost of a data breach — a record high, up 12% year over year IBM, Cost of a Data Breach Report 2026; research conducted independently by the Ponemon Institute. ibm.com/reports/data-breach
48% Share of all breaches that now involve ransomware, even as ransom payouts shrink Verizon Business, 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report. verizon.com/business/resources/reports/dbir
31% Share of breaches that start with a software vulnerability — now ahead of stolen passwords as the leading way in Verizon Business, 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report. verizon.com/business/resources/reports/dbir

Two of those three are what a managed IT plan is built to address directly: tested backup and recovery for the ransomware case, and disciplined patch management for the vulnerability case.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between NIST CSF and 800-171?+
NIST CSF is a voluntary framework for any organization to improve cybersecurity. NIST 800-171 is a specific set of 110 controls required for organizations handling CUI in government contracts.
Is NIST compliance mandatory?+
NIST CSF is voluntary for most private organizations but increasingly required by cyber insurance carriers. NIST 800-171 is mandatory for DoD contractors handling CUI.
How long does NIST implementation take?+
CSF framework adoption typically takes 3-6 months. Full 800-171 implementation for CMMC can take 6-12 months depending on your starting posture.
Do you perform the actual NIST assessment?+
We perform gap assessments and implement controls. For formal CMMC certification, a C3PAO conducts the official assessment — we prepare you for it.
How does NIST relate to CMMC?+
CMMC Level 2 is directly based on NIST 800-171. If you implement NIST 800-171 controls, you’re essentially building the foundation for CMMC certification.
Can NIST help with cyber insurance?+
Yes. Many cyber insurance carriers now ask about NIST framework adoption. Implementing NIST CSF can help you qualify for better coverage and lower premiums.
