Damon Hacker, President of ArcherHall (formerly Vestige) is presenting an informative webinar on:
CMMC 2.0 – Updates You Need to Know
This presentation introduces the DoD’s cybersecurity evolution from NIST 800-171 to the new CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) and specifically targets information relevant to CMMC v2.0. During the presentation we will explore the DoD’s rationale for implementing this, but most importantly educate DoD suppliers as to how to navigate the requirement and understand the DoD’s expectations. If you are one of the 221,000+ suppliers to the DoD – whether big or small, whether prime or subcontractor, if you handle Federal Contract Information (FCI) or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), you will need to address CMMC to be awarded contracts. We will conclude with a complete path forward on becoming certified and explore why the process will likely take most organizations 6 months or more to become certified.
Benefits of Attending:
- Understand your requirements as a DOD Supplier under the new Cybersecurity Maturing Model Certification (CMMC) 2.0 program, how NIST 800-171 still fits in and your obligations under the Interim Rule,
- Gain exposure to the framework and the minimum requirements at Levels 1 & 2 for those that handle Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)
Attendees Will Learn:
- What CMMC is and understand why the DOD has introduced it,
- The difference between NIST 800-171 and CMMC 2.0 and what you need to consider right now,
- The specific steps you need to take to be compliant for Maturity Level 1 and/or 2.
