Illinois PTAC – CMMC PRESENTATION

The Illinois Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) is hosting Vestige to present on a excellent overview of the Department of Defense’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification process for businesses interested in bidding on and winning valuable DoD contracts.

CMMC – A PRIMER

This 90-minute presentation by Damon Hacker of Vestige Digital Investigations, a CMMC Registered Provider Organization (RPO), introduces the DoD’s Cybersecurity CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification).

You will learn how to navigate the requirement and understand the DoD’s expectations. If you are one of the 221,000+ suppliers to the DoD – big or small, prime or subcontractor, if you handle Federal Contract Information (FCI) or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), you will need to become certified to bid on and receive contracts in 2021. Start forming a path forward to become certified and explore why the process could take 6 months or more.

Benefits of Attending:
