Protect chip designs, manufacturing processes, and supply chain integrity. Meet CHIPS Act and DoD requirements for the semiconductor industrial base.
Semiconductors are at the heart of national security and economic competitiveness.
The CHIPS Act and DoD investments are reshoring semiconductor manufacturing. Companies in this supply chain face heightened security expectations and CMMC requirements.
Chip designs, process recipes, and manufacturing know-how are prime targets for economic espionage. Protecting this intellectual property is essential for competitiveness.
DoD is focused on trusted semiconductor supply chains. CMMC certification demonstrates your commitment to security and positions you as a reliable supplier.
Semiconductor companies operate in highly specialized environments with unique security considerations. We understand the intersection of fab operations, design, and compliance.
Design flows using Cadence, Synopsys, and other EDA tools create complex data handling environments that need careful scoping.
Fab environments have specialized OT systems, process control, and equipment that may intersect with CUI handling.
Working with foundries and assembly houses creates complex third-party data handling that needs flow-down consideration.
ITAR, EAR, and semiconductor-specific export controls overlap with CMMC requirements, requiring coordinated compliance.
We understand the unique environment of chip design and manufacturing.
We help define CUI boundaries around EDA tools, design libraries, and IP repositories—minimizing scope while meeting requirements.
Guidance on managing CUI flow-down to foundries, assembly houses, and test facilities with appropriate controls.
Documentation that aligns with export control programs you likely already have, reducing duplication and overhead.
For companies pursuing CHIPS Act funding, we help position your security posture to meet anticipated requirements.
Let's discuss your specific situation and create a practical path to compliance.
