Early Lessons Learned on Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification

If you are in possession of Federal Contract Information (FCI) or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and are looking to get ahead in your Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) quest, understanding the evolving challenges that other organizations are struggling with can be critical to your success.

In our first webinar on the subject, Getting a Grip on CMMC, we discussed the background on the standard, the transition from NIST 800-171, and the impacts to more than 350,000 suppliers in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) supply chain.

Avoiding landmines

In this webinar, we will take you a few steps deeper into the tactical challenges that TrustedSec is helping others overcome. Many organizations have never been through a full security audit of any kind, while others are not heeding general security hygiene practices. Thus, taking on CMMC compliance can seem overwhelming. Even for organizations that have self-attested to NIST 800-171, fully meeting the CMMC controls still may come as a culture shock.
